Get rid of slackers!

Pros

Pay is above the market and the PTO days are good. Company shuttles across the bay area. Good sign on and year end bonuses. There is good work life balance. Visa stock is soaring every year 50%.

Cons

There are many slackers at the Senior Business leader level in the Visa’s Digital and Mobile Product group. For example, the Senior management of Partner Technology Services (PTS) team and his team literally doesn't have any work. Yet he and his team survive because the top level management doesn't bother to look at whats going in this team. There have been many complaints against this team and no action has been taken so far. PTS is the worst performing team in the entire VISA. Slackers demotivate high performers and it can create a lot of negative culture.

Lowest quality of people management I've seen in a long time

Pros

Great brand recognition and reputation. Visa is a household world all over the world and it is inspiring to be part of that. However, the cons negate most of the effects of the fabulous brand.

Cons

Managers manage up with no regard for those who report to them. Most managers are so worried about their own careers they hardly know what's happening on their own teams. Also, I see managers condoning antiquated practices and showing great favoritism for employees that bow to them--a lot of mutual protection and covering up of incompetence.

Pros

- Good benefits - There are cafés which is good, I guess? - CEO came in to make cultural changes that were immediately resisted. So pro on CEO, con on existing leadership.

Cons

- Extremely sycophantic behavior from management like nothing I have ever seen before and I have been in my field for 12 years. One manager stole medication right off my desk and HR suggested I was the problem. Who has a 6 figure salary and steals medication? - You will work when your manager says so. Children and family sick? Well, I hope you find some extra time to finish your 11 hour workday... - No opportunity for advancement unless you are politically advantageous. All opportunities for advancement are instead hired from the outside as an unofficial policy. - Visa is a sausage shop. Everyone is happy with the product but you wouldn't wish seeing its creation on your worst enemy.
