Pros

Very approachable and friendly behaviour. Good infrastructure.

Cons

1.Salary diffrenciatition between experience and freshers is pretty much heart breaking. 2.Stop spending money on so many events and please provide basic facilities for employess. 3.There is no scope of changing projects. 4.Will be hired for one skill set and then cry for automation every time.when u really need an automation resource then please hire accordingly.kindly dont waste or degrade the skills of a employee. 5.Immature and ill behavioured managers who dont have buisness ethics and sense of speaking. 6.No actions taken when you complain against the manager. 7.Its better if you hire only freshers and run your buisness if they are paid out so higher then us.

Pros

Brand strength Strong business outlook Smart employees

Cons

Visa is a great place to work on paper. But in reality, it is one of the most dysfunctional corporations I've seen. The senior management is totally disconnected from the rest of the company and routine decisions that are made by mid level employees at other companies are required to get CEO approval. Even opening POs of $5.000 require CEO/CFO approval, creating a huge logjam. Our CEO has cut back the size and scope of our employee survey instead of addressing negative feedback and while the company enjoys record profit margins, budgets are continually slashed, pitting colleagues against each other and forcing political chess matches instead of teamwork and collaboration. There is no respect for work/life balance and forget about a real vacation - managers have no respect for time off - even expecting 24/7 connectivity for non-essential functions.
