Pros

Most of the people I worked with on a day to day basis were nice.

Cons

Working long hours to train and clean up constant mistakes that were created by outsourced teams. Pay is well below industry standards. The only way to get higher than a 2% pay increase is to leave and come back. God help you if FIS buys out your company. They will use you, abuse you, then transfer all of your duties to India.

Thank you for leaving a review. We see you are no longer employed with FIS, but regarding your concerns you shared as cons, we wanted to share with you that FIS’ compensation philosophy strives to provide competitive pay around the world in the regions we operate – with an emphasis on rewarding performance, to help us attract, engage and retain the best talent. We have a formal pay review process each year. The increase a colleague may receive through this process considers several things – including evaluation of the colleague’s performance, their existing pay compared to the range for their role, and the company’s budget for increases

Pros

Most colleagues are well intentioned, but stretched beyond the max.

Cons

After filing for FMLA, my “leader” encouraged me not to involve HR in the future. The whole point of FMLA is job protection. Him making this suggestion, at best, seems highly unethical and potentially illegal. Some leaders are good with people. Others are more techno sound. The ones that can effectively do both are let go. It makes no sense and the company offers little transparency.
