Pros

Flexible hours. Good Cafeteria at Austin

Cons

If you are not from India, do not come here because there are not speak english. The first and second languages at Visa are Telugu and Hindi. You can speak HR english because they are American, but all developers are from India. Also most developer are contractors here, so they are coming and going within few months which is not good for projects.

Pros

Good Parking Security guards are all nice an professional

Cons

The leadership within the Fusion Center is absolutely the worst I have ever come across in my career. I've seen power tripping fast food management treat their employees better. My suggestion to anyone considering a job here is stay as far away as you can. Chances are you will be fired, or you will be miserable and they won’t follow through on their promises. Team Directors/Leads don't generally know how to do the job their team mates do. Leaders don't set goals and lash out on employees for supposedly not doing well when given vague or undefined tasks. The thought police presence here is real, you constantly get the feeling of being watched and judged for your words. If you don’t like working in an overly politically correct environment Visa is not your place. You come here to work, say hello, work, say bye and go home. Anything beyond that behavior will eventually get you in trouble. Anyone who shares their ideas or gives any constructive feedback in an effort to improve products is swiftly punished via a process that ultimately leads to termination. Turnover is rapid and noticeable. Seems like employees are getting terminated here every few weeks. They literally go through people like socks in an attempt to pass blame and deflect from the sheer incompetence of Directors/Team leads. Sadly as a result highly skilled workers who actually want to achieve and make a difference are terminated frequently. Team Leaders and Directors choose their favorites who get to do nothing, while not logging proper hours and shirking their duties. This means all those responsibilities fall on anyone without 3+ year seniority. As a new employee you will hate your life and the management. Benefits that are promised at time of hiring IE: retirement plan, bonuses, leave, flexible work hours, are all taken away shortly after you arrive in order to enhance overall profits. Bait and switch within hiring process plain and simple.

Pros

Visa is usually ranks amongst the highest in salary. New CEO is legit, and is the start for getting the culture where it needs to be.

Cons

HR execs hire buddies into roles they don't have experience in. No leadership or strategy from the HR group. Very poor culture.
