Pros

Few good technical people to work with.

Cons

1. Fiserv.Inc Give Food Coupons which can be used in there cafeteria. They Charge 30 rupee for printing the coupons from Employee. And the worst part Rs 880 rupee Food Coupon is Added in Salary Structure (Part B) 2. Facility Team make weird Rules all of a sudden 3. The Bangalore Office lacks basic hygiene . Wash rooms are not cleaned regularly and stinks and no Tissue Paper given in Gents Wash room. :) 4. Managers out there mostly Participate in Office Politics and buttering :) 5. During appraisal if you ask for a designation change (Career prospect) Manager reply that they never knew what is your present designation. This happened to me. You need to explicitly mention in Appraisal form that you need a promotion otherwise you will hear the same answer. :) . They have no process a CMMI Level 5 company should have. 6. If you are serving notice period then be very careful because company will exploit you till the end.

Pros

Short commute. Reputable firm with solid performance in the industry. Adequate compensation, but below market.

Cons

Regressive culture, poor planning practices. Under-resourced organization. Emphasis is more on cost containment than staffing to meet demand. Work/life balance is not respected.

Pros

Many of the people I work with are dedicated, hard-working individuals. Starting salary was good for me (although somewhat stale since then). Even if they are the bare minimum for a company of this size, they do at least offer the standard range of benefits. I'm really trying to be positive here, but to be honest, I've worked for this place for two years, and only really felt good about it in the first few months.

Cons

Prepare to find some of the bare minimum when it comes to pretty much anything. As if the company grew very fast and decided that they might as well offer a standard benefits package, but give them the budget version. I have traveled for the company to several locations, and I can say that there are some HUGE inconsistencies in amenities between offices. To some degree this is expected, but it's pretty insane when one office has an employer subsidized cafeteria and small, decaying work-out room as the best offering, while another has free-beer-fridays and game tables with a view of the ocean, yet another is equipped with full game rooms and outdoors activities in a resort-like setting. So basically, you're hit or miss with this place depending on where you work. The real problem here is that "Fiserv" has to corporate culture, although they're trying to create one by force. They are an umbrella corp that buys up little companies and smashes them all together and doesn't complain as long as they continue making money. And their idea of getting people engaged is to just tell them to try their best to operate as one company. They don't actually enforce it internally. Somehow it's a good thing that a Fiserv sells rep heads to a potential client armed with 30 practically identical service offerings from 30 used-to-be independent companies. Seems like we'd just confuse people. Also, attrition is terrible. I'm lucky to be in a decent salary range, but people leave because they barely give cost-of-living increases from year to year. Some other departments seem to be simply built on attrition, needing to have constant job fairs to fuel an employee population that rotates as quickly as the wheels on a stock car. Putting in 50 or 60 hours a week doesn't warrant a "Thank you" from management. Bonus structure doesn't exist anymore, and when we had one, if we met the goal, they didn't just change the goal, they would completely change the calculation. Moving up seems next to impossible, and moving over isn't much better.
