Visa Inc. reviews

Politics, back stabbing, management with no backbone, long hours, lack of recognition, unrealistic expectations, and lack of clarity in different departmental roles. Don't speak up since management does not want to hear about problems! Lack of standardized processes and systems make it difficult to get anything accomplished. Company acts like a startup with no infrastructure. CEO acts like a country bumpkin and is not in touch with the real issues of the company. What he perceives and what is reality are totally the opposite.

Culture can be toxic due to persistent layoffs/re-orgs and staffers protecting their turf for job security or for upward mobility. The culture is definitely "who you know" which helps smooth pathways to getting decisions go your way. Processes are devised and not followed (even by the people who devised them . . . there's always an exception they claim). Badly behaved people (bullies) continue to enjoy longevity. They are seen as ones who get things done. It seems that teamwork and a sense of cooperation is exception rather than a rule. Difficult to trust others.
