      Lots of good change, but please bring the coporate culture back!

      Pros

      Lots of change - willingness to let go of overpaid "older" employees whose skills/knowledge have fallen behind those of younger employees who are able to pick up new processes more quickly.

      Cons

      Corporate culture is boring. Since the IPO, senior managment has but all "fun" events (no more summer picnic, peak season parties, etc), including removing all alcoholic beverages from internal events.

      Still worth working for

      Pros

      World wide recognized employer. Good benefits package and a stock that's doing well. Company is hiring more young people to fill roles that were once occupied by staff that has been with the company for 15 to 20 years. There is very little knowledge transfer that goes on between older staff and new employees. Sometimes managers layoff older staff without first having them document processes leaving new staff unable to come up to speed to take over the work. It is clear sr. business leaders are territorial and are friendly with sr. management in order to get any work done and to expedite projects. It's the only way to make sure your projects get funding.

      Cons

      Corporate politics feeds the rumor mills and no one clarifies to staff about where the company is headed. Management vague about corporate decisions and vision for next 2 years. Lots of the staff is disappointed that there was a pay freeze last year. Everyone has been taking on the work of those laid off without proper compensation. Management expects you to do at least 9 hrs a day but frown on reporting overtime. Reviews have been increasingly subjective so that if you are buddies with your manager, you will definitely have a better rating than rest of the staff who does their work but doesn't socialize with management.

      Executive Management Makes Big Short Term Bucks Waiting to Move On To Destroy the Next Profitable Business

      Pros

      Visa is viewed as a solid public company by Wall Street, so the stock has not plummeted.

      Cons

      Hierarchy rules. Every financial decision needs 5 levels of management approval. There are no personal growth plans - everyone with the same job title has the same generalized goals which almost never change year-after-year. About half the company had their job titles changed to either business leader or senior business leader. Nepotism reigns. It's the friends you make in high places that determine how much power you have. Not your competency.
