Pros

I have not across and pro's since Global Payments has acquired TSYS in April 2019. Perhaps the fact that only 6 people were terminate or furloughed since the COVID-19 sweep the nation was a good thing.

Cons

The acquisition of TSYS by Global Payments was sold to us a great thing for TSYS. Due to a wide of overlapping products and resources, as TSYS employees, we were told that "...it was a great opportunity for TSYS". Those were lies. Products and personal overlapping is never a good thing for the acquired company. TSYS motto was "See something, DO something," however that is/was also a lie, especially if changes you propose goes against "leader" who would seem inapt and stupid! There are great opportunities Global Payment's employees. Undergoing a merger is never a good thing for the acquired company. I've never seen leadership power-grab at its worse as I'm seeing during a merger. Obviously, there're hardly any opportunities for TSYS employees. There's wasn't a strong leadership at TSYS, and I have to say the same for Global Payment's leadership. There is, however, lots of alliances being formed between incompetent staff. As an example, we've spent over $5 Million building a product that was a whooping flop. Instead of letting the "leader" go, like what would happen to a peon, he gets promoted. Maybe even got a pay raise! Those are the type of things you have to deal with! And when you try to something worthwhile, you get the cold shoulder!

Pros

Hands-On Experience with Modern Infrastructure Friendly and Supportive Culture Great Resume Builder Work-Life Balance If you value a supportive team culture, a manageable workload, and building high-scale professional project experience, a Global Payments internship is a fantastic stepping stone, especially for launching a career in FinTech or platform engineering.

Cons

Uncertainty Around Full-Time Pipeline Varying Tech Stacks by Team: Because the company encompasses many different product lines and acquired systems, your experience can vary wildly depending on the specific team you land on. Some teams work on cutting-edge, next-gen cloud platforms, while others are tasked with maintaining or upgrading older legacy architectures.
