Hi All,

Can anyone tell me the salary structure in IBM?
Compensation team told my variable will be 10 to 15% and there will be quarterly bonus depending on performance it seems?

Can someone point me to some material where I can read about profit sharing vs 401k. I get the concept, but I am trying to understand is 10% profit sharing vested over 5 years better than an employee 401k match of 6%?

From my understanding 10% PS is better because it’s just a standard 10% on top of whatever I contribute though it takes 5 years to vest. Does this mean if I leave before 5 years I don’t get any of it?

Got an offer from Kantar Consulting to work on their retail/cpg product.
Currently working with IBM with 10+ yoe having joined IBM 10 months back. Currently at 25 lpa and getting an offer of 32 fixed+15% variable.

Also would leaving IBM after 1 year look bad on CV?

Who is planning for next year's draft?

Hi everyone, I’m looking for some clarification. This may be obvious and I might not need to ask, but what is the difference between senior managers and managers? Apart from seniority.
