      Great experience, mediocre system, and poor development environment

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Great company which is doing extremely well in the marketplace. In some groups, the code you touch affects the livelihood of millions of people. A great place to learn about payments and payments processing. Some really top notch engineers.

      Cons

      More than a few mediocre engineers just coasting. The code base is kind of a mess, although many efforts are being made to fix things. The development environment, building and testing, was a real mess when I was there, although I hear that things have gotten a bit better.

      Business Outlook

      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
