Pros

Women do hold management positions - as well as Board positions with this company. Wonderful working with and getting to know colleagues in different countries. For foreign employees - they will hire and sponsor you. NO other pros whatsoever.

Cons

Hire way too many employees from overseas in order to save on payroll - but then turn around and waste in legal fees. I think the entire function of Finastra is to constantly buy and merge - ALWAYS a mess. WAY too much turnover, and very quickly, in Senior Management and HR - Sales Heads, Presidents of Divisions, VP, SVP, Heads of Americas, etc. - many last less than 1 year. Loooooooong hours with expectations to work around the clock seven days a week - where the salary in no way warrants that type of position. A LOT of travel is expected - locally as well as internationally. With management constantly changing - like a revolving door - so changes targets, expectations, projects, roll-outs, team layouts, goals, measurements, training, etc.
