Fidelity National Information Services – “Dangerous mix of arrogance and ignorance”

Pros

FIS is fairly flexible with work hours and location. Working remotely (i.e. from home) is tolerated even if an office is nearby. There's very little micro-management, so it's a good place to work for someone self-motivated.

Cons

Communication is difficult at best, and done mostly via e-mail and conference calls. Everyone's heads down trying to meet deadlines and resource utilization, so no one knows what others are doing or if there's an easier, more efficient way to accomplish the goal.

Advice to Senior Management

All resources are not created equal. Learn to evaluate strengths and weaknesses of resources, and utilize/compensate appropriately. Rationalize product mix to serve client needs. Get over legacy companies/products and obsolete redundant products.
