It is a huge list to start with. Whatever bad reviews are already there, they are all so true.
Whatever good reviews are there, they are from freshers.
There are mainly four divisions in Visa India office 1. VDP (80% ex-Microsoft guys) 2. MAP (50% ex-paypal/ebay guys) 3. DMPD(80% ex-vendors) 4. O&I (50% ex-wipro) Decide where to join.
1. Total Visa is service based culture, pathetic work culture. Some team leads/mgrs make you sit and work,observe your IN/OUT-time to office.
2. Very few good projects with very few people from good product based companies
3. Good people have started to look outside Visa for job change ,resumes are floating in mkt.
4. Already many people have left within joining of 6 months.
5. People hired are through contacts so you can imagine the quality of people hired,not many good company people are applying for job in Visa.
6. US team is totally disconnected, imagine the struggle for KTs and other things, late night calls(12-1AM) and people in India join that.
7. No proper road map for any of the projects. Good projects are still done from US.
8. All senior management people in India are trying to establish themselves by hook or by crook. No vision.
9. Freshers are being given some random work for their engagement, no real work.
10. Visa is another Infosys, in short.
11. Pays are not that great except NITs/IITs.
12. Freshers are also not that happy and might leave later if not sooner.
13. Salary and Designation disparity across the company as someone has rightly mentioned in an earlier review.
14. Lot of well known people in US from top management have left the company specifically in O&I div.
15. Below 5% hike , mostly 0% this time. They call variable pay as bonus and everybody gets happy for that as if it is outside their CTC.
16. They are competing with MS,Flipkart,Oracle by paying good salaries to freshers but quality and exposure is not even 10% of what MS,FK and Oracle offers. Worst of all few NITians doing testing and support job here.
17. In 8 months, emp count is >600-700, think about the hiring pace for a new company in bangalore. Heard they have over hired people and still going strong.
18. Office politics at its best in some divisions.
19. None of the divisions except MAP is a revenue generating for Visa so expect firing at some point of time.
20. At last, see the glassdoor overall review. Below 3 (at the time of this review) says everything about a company.
