Pros

- Mature company - Diverse but only because of continued investment in offshore resources - Good Experience

Cons

- EXTREMELY bureaucratic - CEO profits off of mounds of stock only two months before no 2020 merit increases or bonuses are being distributed - no bonuses for anyone outside of leadership - Post-pandemic salary discussions and information were very shady and lacked transparency - Acquire companies only to ruin their exiting culture and scare away even the most loyal talent.

Pros

-Work from home -Most teams are great to work with

Cons

-No Merit increases for 2020 because of financial reasons, although the Board voted to increase stock dividends and start a share buyback program just two months ago. -No bonuses for 2020, instead they decided to give out company stock to a select group of people that can be redeemed in August 2022 if you're still with the company at that time. -Mandatory 10% pay cut for contractors started January 2021. -Got rid of $3k yearly employee scholarship program that was available to yourself and children. -Got rid of $500 yearly charity match. -Constant reorgs of the company because it's been glued together from 40+ previous acquisitions. -Reduced the 401k company match from 1 to 1 on 5% to a 1 to .5 match on 6%.

Thank you for your feedback. We appreciate the time you have taken to write your review and are happy to hear that you appreciate the work from home policies at FIS. As you know, 2020 was an unprecedented year for the world and for FIS. We unexpectedly and quickly pivoted in several areas to ensure we were laser-focused on what’s important, and that is our colleagues, clients, and communities. This included investments in new health and safety protocols throughout the organization and new wellness programs, including COVID-19 time off and enhanced medical, well-being, and mental health resources. With that being said, FIS is not immune from the financial impact the pandemic has had on businesses globally. As a result, we are facing an unusual compensation year for 2021. We also encourage you to report any of your other stated concerns through your manager, a member of the People Office, or the FIS Ethics Hotline.

Pros

Benefits were okay but reduced in 2021 due to Covid. My coworkers were my favorite part of the job as they truly cared and wanted to do their best with what we had.

Cons

I’ve never encountered a company this dysfunctional. Multiple acquisitions have created an environment where to many toes are being stepped on and efforts to support and improve the customer experience became laughable. Too many small businesses are being taken advantage of and I brought these unethical sales practices to HR and received no response. Management had no clue how to improve basic customer service experiences for customers and threw sales reps under the bus when escalations occurred. I never had the correct tools to do my job so customer accounts couldn’t be managed effectively. I spent my days being accosted and harassed by customers and attorneys to the point where I couldn’t take it anymore. Over my two years tenure the 20 people I worked with left the company or took other positions and Unfortunately I had a manager who barley handled escalations and left us on our own. With these issues and the amount of layoffs occurring now I would not recommend this company to anyone
