Pros
Decent work/life balance, depending on the group you're in. Stock Price is up considerably the past few years
Cons
As I'm sure you've read in the comments Visa has decided to effectively remove 6% of our pay by eliminating our pension plans. What you really need to understand is that this isn't an isolated incident nor is it one born of financial necessity. It's done because the executive management believes they can, and basic human greed. As a company we've improved Net Income and Revenue consistently year over year and have cash reserves in the many Billions. In fact we just announced a $5B stock buy back plan, but somehow we can't afford to keep a program in place that has been a huge reason for not only retention, but also new hires. It's this type of short-sighted executive leadership you're walking into at Visa. A company led by people willing to steadily reduce 401k contributions, eliminate pension plans, hike up healthcare costs and attempt to push a middling ESPP plan onto their employees all in the name of a tiny bump in the stock price and reducing company risk. Make no mistake about it, Visa is a great stock to own. Management will do whatever it takes to ensure stockholder value. Unfortunately that means taking money away from the only bucket they feel they can: The employees.
