Pros

If you're attempting to get your foot in the door in a particular career field, and FIS is the only offer....take it, learn, gain some experiance......and then move on to a better, more reputable company (before FIS beats you to it and releases you as part of one of their many "reductions in force").

Cons

Too many reorganizations, too divisional, seems to focused on short term instead of long-term success. Employees are generally not treated very well. No sense of stability with all of the reorgs. I have reported to 5 different individuals over the last 6 months. Every time a project is approved...it's put on hold as you're reporting to someone different or another reorg is occurring, etc. They really have no interest in security or safety when it comes to their employees and/or customer data. The only focus for them is to pass audits so that business can go on as usual, even if it means intentionally misleading auditors and ignoring issues that are brought to their attention that are not in compliance. Their philosophy seems to be....wait until we get caught, argue compensating controls....and if the world comes to an end, then we'll address it.

Pros

Most colleagues are well intentioned, but stretched beyond the max.

Cons

After filing for FMLA, my “leader” encouraged me not to involve HR in the future. The whole point of FMLA is job protection. Him making this suggestion, at best, seems highly unethical and potentially illegal. Some leaders are good with people. Others are more techno sound. The ones that can effectively do both are let go. It makes no sense and the company offers little transparency.
