Pros

Working as an Senior Engineer helped me a lot in taking individual stands & authority in this past few years. We mainly look out merchant payment, credit unions payments & ATM related transactions, Bank Issuer end transactions & payment Authentication. We mainly lookover payments made under ecommerce giants like Walmart, Amazon, Apple, Kroger, Target, bestbuy, Netflix payments, Abercombie&Fitch, Armani, Sony, walt disney, walgreens & this list goes on. Job security is good. We receive PLI discrentionary bonus is on every quarterly basis. Moreover, the appraisal/hike is in double digit%. The company provides all the perks & facilities in return for the work contribution we provide to the company. Its interesting to work hand in hand with some big Merchants & credit unions. Plus we get a permanent WFH policy at FIS which makes the work more flexible & convenient. They also provide WFH monthly allowance for that. They provide high retention bonus to retain the talent. Yearly appraisals are in double digits for an average performer. So, one can figure it out how much hike a top performer can get. Sometimes the work gets too loaded & occupied with back to back meetings with Onshore teams. I will rate overall outlook of the company as 'best'.

Cons

They have some accounts where there is a monotonous kind of job & no new learning. Otherwise there is much to learn from this company & especially from the project peers who are mostly US employees. Work sometimes get tideous & overboard & for that one may have to go overtime to finish the work. Downside is they dont pay for that extra hours even one fill the extra hours in time sheet.

Pros

Nine years of complex engineering challenges and professional growth. Strong camaraderie with talented colleagues across various engineering teams. Opportunities to work on high-impact projects and scalable infrastructure. Gained significant experience in complex system architecture and troubleshooting.

Cons

Abrupt end to a nine-year tenure without adequate transition or transparency. Heavy reliance on an aging, legacy tech stack that hinders innovation. Contradictory AI strategy: leadership mandates aggressive adoption while refusing to fund the necessary compute and tools for teams to actually implement it. Extreme short-term focus on EPS maximization at the direct expense of long-term stability and product health.
