ISO Card Laundering under Frank

https://seekingalpha.com/news/3576039-fiservs-first-data-settles-charges-of-iso-credit-card-laundering Should that $40 million come out of Frank’s pockets? Or will it lead to more layoffs to pay for it?

Frank is miffed that we're all WFH

You can read between the lines when leaders address you; he's miffed, and I'm not sure he believes himself when he says "no rush" to get back. I am not sure why he dislikes WFH so much; I feel like we've been pulling our weight and working hard... — read more 

Censorship

Not just individual comments, but noticed that entire posts have been removed from this board. How fragile is Tony Soprano?

Sabotage

Fiserv corporate has literally sabotaged this board by removing posts and posting on each thread. What a bizarre insecure organization does this. Along with giving employees a goal of filling out the engagement survey in their favor its no wonder... — read more 

Mental health

How does one navigate the effect these 'efficiencies' to departments takes on mental wellbeing? It's becoming more and more difficult to find any motivation to care about Fiserv, about anything. I'm OFD and accepted I'm a number on a spreadsheet... — read more

Endless Cycles

The endless cycle of hiring spree followed by layoff lottery (wherein it isn't really a process of ditching deadwood, but mostly about settling scores, protecting the good ol' boys, and ditching the newbies who haven't quite learned how to play... — read more 

FTS travel

As OFD I know travel is audited extensively. Who and why and if it makes sense. It’s clear OFS FTS travel has raised a lot of flags for “anomalies”. If and when travel does occur expect it to be the OFD way, not the OFS version

WhatThe Wiki

Have you seen the Wiki page for Fiserv? Maybe it’s a blend error between FD and Fiservs pages but Yabuki’s name isn’t in the key people section. And it lists the owner as KKR. WTF?!?! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiserv

Fiserv burned too many bridges

Fiserv has been slowly blackballing itself for years. Nowadays, only the H1-B, desperate, or the naive will bother working for them in the smaller tech markets, because they simply burned too many bridges and word has gotten out. When I worked... — read more 

How screwed are we?

Frank Bisignano seems like the worst possible replacement for Yabuki from what I can see, at least in regards to employees. I'm sure shareholders are going to love him when he starts cutting costs. Was there really no other, better alternative that... — read more 

ATL

It’s true a lot of lay off at Fiserv here in ATL. I know of 5 people. They been with the company for 20 plus years got let go last week. Sad thing.

Insulting

While employees take home less money due to rising benefit premiums and pathetic raises less than 2% our leaders compensation keeps increasing. It’s truly obscene. Capitalism is fine corporate greed is not. ... — read more 

Bad company

I used to work for Electronic Data System. Fiserv came in and took over with a promise of no lay-offs. Then laid off 98 people saying that they were restructuring the company. Long behold- 90% were black. Very prejudice company . Then like 2 years... — read more

Suggestion: Don’t Feed The Trolls

There is bound to be an uptick in FB sympathizers showing up to goad you into an argument. This is their time in the company now and they are the type of low-moral humans who LOVE to pick a fight. A majority of us on here are using this site for... — read more 

“The synergy work is not complete...”

They target is now $1.2B. They are going to cut, cut, cut. And by so doing, lose any hint of the vison/people they need to become the best fintech on the planet. You can’t spreadsheet filter your way to client success and wellness. You have to think... — read more 

#notmyfiserv

So many questions run thru my mind when I think of those 4,000 laid off. What is the benefit of losing teams of people with years and years of experience? Those people cannot be replaced easily, especially in these times. Those left behind are... — read more

But Jeff, why did you have to wreck this company? "Because it's wreck-able, all right?"

FB’s LinkedIn page

Aside from the fact that he feels he needs one (obviously written by a professional writer) it says nothing about Fiserv in it. You’d think given his ridiculous contract that a year later he’d update his profile. What’s wrong, Frankie...ashamed to... — read more

Given franks history and the desire of the top executives to cash out, it’s pretty clear the company is being prepared for sale. The actions in the last year line up exactly with what one does to accomplish that starting with massive staff reduction... — read more 

Hillsboro IT

More Location Changes

If you don't live within 30 miles of a "Fiserv" location when the company does decide to let associates go back to the office they will let those associates go. Nevermind they are forcing Alpharetta based associates to now report to Marietta when the... — read more 

Is this true?

Make this work for you

Instead of getting upset with the behaviors of these leaders (which are poor) do something to change this to your advantage. The stock will be a good investment for 3 years (no longer) as Jeff and frank have hundreds of millions of dollars at risk. ... — read more 

JY

Jeff's thinking in 2017- "Hmm, I need someone to gut this company. Who can I get?" "Ah, word on the street is FB is the best in the biz at gutting"

Burning furniture

Tommy Boys big joke when Fiserv bought FD was that they were burning furniture to stay warm. Meaning that debt was causing them to cut costs so deeply it was a major burden to operations. Well who’s burning furniture now? Is it possible to right... — read more
