It's extremely difficult to recommend FICO as a place to build a career.
Pros
The pay scale is favorable and they have broad name recognition in credit, scoring and fraud detection.
Cons
1) FICO has absolutely no culture as an organization. 2) Corporate HQ was moved from Minneapolis to San Jose in order to position as more of a "technology" company. Unlike a true, innovative Silicon Valley company where leadership is accessible, the C-Level team in San Jose has taken over a secured floor where other employees have no access. 3) The company has missed revenue numbers like clockwork for several consecutive years but hits profitability numbers each quarter by cost cutting - (read that as job cutting). 4) Internal communication is weak and if you need support from someone else in another part of the organization to execute your role effectively, forget it.
