easy job isn't too demanding, but no room to grow - Software Engineer Fiserv Employee Review

Company politics suck and take up at least 40-50% of my week, and I don't get to focus on developing and writing code. Instead, I spend my time justifying my projects, giving updates, and justifying my projects again. Recently after spending 4 weeks working on a project that had been approved by the director, it was cancelled with no explanation. I just want to work -- not play politics. Because of the tough atmosphere, it's hard to grow and move up in the organization unless you're a personality type A person who is willing to play management's games. I do not recommend!
