Pros
Autonomy, lots of down time, low stress. A lot of times I would only talk to my manager a few times a week. Job was low stress unless there was a production issue - however the software solution I supported was poorly built and maintained so production was constantly blowing up. Folks in India are smart, nice to work with.
Cons
Low pay, upward mobility non-existent, uninspired colleagues. 90% of the people I worked with unfortunately were pretty negative as far as attitude. Lazy & unmotivated colleagues, good if you want a paycheck and don’t care about progressing the company or yourself. Underpaid - asked for raise, was given a fraction of what I requested despite my role being critical and then they were shocked when I told them I was leaving. Tried to move to a few different roles internally, shut down with no real good reason - easier for me to leave. Can’t say I’m optimistic about FIS’s future. There are a few folks I worked with I really think are bright but the overall attitude of colleagues and friends I made there was FIS is going down hill. Wish them the best but this is not an attractive company for the young and motivated
