Toxic Culture | Poor Leadership | No WLB | Negligible Learning
Pros
For someone working at minimal pay, Fiserv gives relatively better than the bottom most pay scale. Nothing good for people already working at "any" PBC or good SBCs PS: Regarding Cons Section, most things & pay are slightly better at Clover (acquired by Fisev), but the rest, same policies apply.
Cons
- Micro-management at every step, every decision, guilt traps, toxicity - No quality code/system development - Maybe project specific, but no learning after the tech stack familiarity, no good challenging projects.. your CV will be ruined the more time you spend there - Extremely poor leadership, no real discussions, lack of transparency, 0 accountability, passive aggression is common. - Only KPI would be how many weekends or odd hours you were online and working, only such people with 0 WLB (rather -ve wlb) are applauded (yes, only applauded... no good hikes even after that) - Promotion means bigger title and responsibilities, "an opportunity for you to learn more", not earn more (0 appraisals on promotion is common) - 5 days a week, minimum 8hrs a day in office, minimum 8hrs of keyboard click tracking with tools installed in system (recently removed "8hrs in office" constraint, after seeing good talent leaving), instant firing with worst on-spot termination - No WFH - "only when you're admitted in hospital and can't come to office anyhow and there is critical work stuck, then only we can allow remote work" :) PS: Remote work with leaves applied, pestering on time-offs, weekends is common
