Pros

PTO benefit is nice. I adore my boss and team but recognize that this isn't the case across the board. I love my actual job.

Cons

Lack of a real maternity/parental leave benefit. Confusing systems with no real guidance on where to go for what. Likes to spend a lot of time talking about how we're responsible for our own knowledge but takes no responsibility for the messy systems and web pages they give us to work with. No raise this year - I understand that COVID has made things tough, but how am I supposed to be motivated to do my job well when people are being let go left and right, there's at least 1 reorg announcement every 3 weeks and now I'm being told that my annual review is worth nothing? Liking my job and coworkers isn't enough to convince me that this is a company worth working for in the long term.

Thank you for your feedback. We appreciate the time you have taken to write your review and are happy to hear that you value the personal time off benefit provided by FIS. As you know, 2020 was an unprecedented year for the world and for FIS. We unexpectedly and quickly pivoted in several areas to ensure we were laser-focused on what’s important, and that is our colleagues, clients, and communities. This included investments in new health and safety protocols throughout the organization and new wellness programs, including COVID-19 time off and enhanced medical, well-being, and mental health resources. With that being said, FIS is not immune from the financial impact the pandemic has had on businesses globally. As a result, we are facing an unusual compensation year for 2021. We also see you’ve listed yourself as a current employee. We encourage you to speak with your manager or a member of The People Office to express any concerns you have so that they can help you with suitable guidance.

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.
