Pros

Good exposure to payments domain

Cons

The closeness to upper management matters more than work Promotions and oppurtunities are based on who you know and how your boss is placed in the group rather than work Multiple reorgs with no result Lay offs not based on work but on several other factors in nae of streamlining the organization

Pros

Great people, smart people. With new CEO, maybe things will get back

Cons

Been a horrible last 3 years. Non-stop re-offs, new leadership that cut everyone and brought in new people who don’t know anything. No clear priorities, no leadership.
