I applied online. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Visa Inc. (Austin, TX) in Feb 2021
Interview
Recruiter reached out to me after applying online on their website. Had a phone screen and then had an online assessment. Was moved on to the technical interviews. Technical interview round consisted of 4 rounds although in one of the rounds, the interviewer was an entry level software developer out of college who was only a few months into the job at Visa - this to me, was ridiculous! This was followed by an interview with a director and was offered the position.
They have a ridiculous compensation philosophy when it comes to external experienced hires vs. college new grad hires - college hires get a joining bonus, stock compensation, etc but external experienced hires don't get anything as a part of the compensation package outside of the base and an annual bonus. For such a big company, negotiation didn't yield even a single cent even with valid reasons and after them gathering all the documentation they wanted to substantiate that reason.
Overall, a barely professional process with red flags all along the process.
