Pros

Visa has a great brand with consumers. The recently opened Visa University (2015) is a nice learning facility at the HQ. Subsidized cafeteria and onsite gym at HQ and Austin locations. Not sure if this is a pro, but there are a lot of inflated titles which is great for resume but leads to a lot of VP's reporting to VP's and a top heavy organization.

Cons

Poor management which leads to low employee morale, and turnover. High turnover, the team I was on saw over 20 people leave in a 2 year period (and it was a small team. No development of managers so that they can improve, and leadership does not address issues or poor managers. It seems that leadership doesn't value employees.

Pros

The benefits and pay are good.

Cons

Visa is majority Indian work force. It is safe to assume that out of the 1000 employees hired to the Austin Texas location, three out of five are Indian. In fact, for cyber security and code development departments, the management is 90% Indian. Many non-Indian employees are leaving Visa in order to obtain upward mobility. There is definitely an environment where Indians hire Indians and promote Indians. The HR IT department is also headed by Indians making it extremely difficult to bring concerns of bias to management.
