Pros

Smart colleagues, flexible working, good offices and decent benefits.

Cons

This may be different for other products within Finastra but the products that I worked with were unfortunately very difficult to 'modernise'. There is a feel about the products and place that make it seem dated by 10 years or so.

Pros

You get to meet a lot of smart people, make friends and have a nice work environment. Some get to work with cool tech and on projects that have a future.

Cons

Product management is almost non existent, stuck with old views or inexperienced juniors. Dev management is lacking in, well ..., management skills since most come from being developers and did not receive relevant management training or had a proper ramp up of such skills. All this leads to a lot of no future projects with poorly sized teams, bad synch between teams, poor actual business insight.

Pros

Decent benefits, plenty of PTO, great people!

Cons

They say they are flattening the organization, but keep adding levels of management. The top doesn't know what the bottom is doing. They say they are reducing silos, but giving each team separate goals leads to more silos. Strategy does not meet execution!
