Kyndryl reviews

You're screwed if you get stuck under the wrong organization. Little to no career advancement internally. Lots of competing product offerings selling to the same customers. Sales cliques galore. Gimmicky go-to-market strategies that sellers nor customers want to talk about.

Very slow growth. Once you are in this company, don't expect much hike in salary or even promotions. The company is losing all its businesses. They are continuing with the accounts from IBM days, and unable to renew any profitable contracts. Company has downsized a lot over past couple of years. When Kyndryl was set up it used to have 90K+ employees, at present in 2025 it has around 74K. Kyndryl has accounts only in Bangalore location. All the other locations are just there for the mere sake of existence, with no good or very few accounts. You could end up reporting to 2 managers. 1st is people manager (not sure why this role is needed) for approving leaves, and doing your appraisals without knowing anything about the work that you do. 2nd is you functional manager, who looks after the delivery of your account. Just to get a single leave approved, you might need 3 levels of approval (Client Manage-->Functional Manager-->People Manager) It is an over-processed organization, so you might feel that things are moving very slowly, when HR or finance related issues are raised. Talking about HR, they are non-existent in Kyndryl, you will always be redirected to a chatbot, giving weird answers.
