Very Poor Senior Leadership, Very Flat Organization

Pros

High pay. Offers stock awards.

Cons

Senior leaders protect themselves and are not respectful of staff. A lot of new senior leaders being recruited from non-financial industries (e.g. CPG, Health, Pharma, etc) have no clue of the payments industry business and really have nothing to contribute other than talk about what they used to do in their old world. Some senior leaders very unprofessional in demeanor in dealing with staff, peers, other BU staff during meetings and everyday collaborations. Obvious favoritism at an all-time high in the organization. HR useless — pro management and cannot be trusted to support employees.

Pros

Room to learn new things and use cutting edge technology.

Cons

Management are micro managers that are constantly wanting a status update but won't give the team room to do their work. There is no work life balance. They expect you to show up early, leave late, work through lunch and weekends. The place is been filled with contractors and a lot of H1 workers so the employee feels the pressure to have the same work schedule as said contractors.

Pros

Love that my company cares enough to keep asking as well as providing tools, programs and ways to get ahead. Not just financially but emotionally as well. We have 5 paid days per year to volunteer to any of our favorite charities as well as an expanded pat leave globally...not to mention that #acceptancematters.

Cons

Takes a bit of time to learn about other teams and what they do or how you should align with them
