Pros

Everyone gets a bonus but that's about it

Cons

There are a lot of Cons working for Visa. Keep in mind that this is a VERY old company living in the dark ages. When you interview, they put "we are a casual company so please don't come dressed better than your interviewers" or something like that. It is clear they are trying to compete for young, aggressive talent -- they consider themselves talent competitors with Google, Facebook, PayPal but in all honestly, any young aggressive new college grads leaves after about a year. They do NOT allow any working remotely. None. They are big brother, watching your every move. Everyone at Visa is VERY conservative. I have friends that work at Apple, Google, etc and those companies are much more flexible and employee friendly. Their ESPP program is antiquated as well. You have to keep the stock for 2 years which is something we did 20 years ago. Now almost all ESPP programs are a 6 month program with a 15% discount off market price. Visa makes a lot of money but it isn't due to innovation and changing the world. I cannot recommend working for Visa.

Sorry to hear about your experience at Visa. We hope you are taking advantage of Flex Fridays this summer and talking with your manager about working remotely. It’s certainly something that is allowed and done throughout our organization, depending on the demands of your work. It’s an exciting time to be at Visa, with all the cool innovation happening with payment rings, biometrics and even connected cars. It’s been great to see an over 94% response rate for our recent employee survey -no scores declined this year with employees reporting a high level of pride and willingness to recommend Visa as a place to work. Hope you are able to have the conversations you need to help you find the work balance that works best for you.

Pros

Great brand, market leadership, good clients

Cons

Management unable to make the right decisions as they fall all over themselves trying to register a high diversity score. HR is atrocious and should be gutted. There are a few good senior managers left but they will be assimilated into the meat grinder soon. Exec management thinks the network runs itself and they have lost the value of keeping and motivating good people.
