Visa Inc. Employee Review

Current Employee – been working at Visa Inc.

Pros – Visa has some very talented people, if only it would set them free to innovate. The pay is reasonable but not great when you factor the long hours. Kudos for matching donations to good causes.

Cons – Very long hours, needlessly long. Enough with the constant re-orgs! Too much politics, especially within the management ranks. The company is becoming increasingly cheap..Holiday "party" hosted in the parking garage of one of its buildings...tacky for a company that reported $5+ Billion in Income. Leadership is poor (lots of clueless managers). Career growth is laughable, unless you are a "favored" one. Bad systems & tools to work with, especially for a "technology" company.

Advice to Senior Management – Where is the Board of Directors? They need to remake the entire Leadership, especially in the Finance Org (The CFO couldn't care less about the Finance Org., as long as Wall Street is happy) You'll lose good people once the economy improves. Invest in your employees in the USA (less outsourcing to Singapore). Promote from within, you have god people. Need new C.E.O and new C.F.O pronto.

No, I would not recommend this company to a friend
