sudden 1-1 with the manager, is it a red flag?
Nothing is and will change in FIG for a loooong time!
Gelb is not the answer. Foskett should be long retired and has no biz talking to mainstreet FIs we serve... he is a Wall Street dinosaur. The RM/Sales leader - useless and clients and his team know it. Product - zero strategy. Our competition is... — read more
HR Worst run function in the company
Please get a real head of HR. The real HR professionals are about to revolt.
Your Voice !!!!
The data is reported by VP/SVP, so it’s not entirely anonymous if reporting lines are thin. I’m hoping not to get too candid, and nothing changes anyway, so what’s the point? Suggestions?
We are reaching a breaking point
The stock won’t recover through layoffs. Maybe there’s a short-term bump, but long-term we’ve been in a downward spiral. You can’t fix anything with cuts alone, especially when they’re not strategic or tied to a real vision. This company won’t... — read more
Corporate Cards
Kevin is aiming to cut down on expenses. Our group heard they are auditing specific groups for fraudulent expense reports. Rumor or truth?
I’m among those hoping to be laid off
I’ve chickened out so many times already, and with the job market the way it is, I’m extremely hesitant. Still, I can barely drag myself to work every day. I can’t stand this company, and I’m bored out of my mind with my job. It’s all pressure, it’s... — read more
How much do y'all make? If willing to share? Anonymous so it's ok
Just wondering. Anyone here willing to share how much they make/year? And without specifics,,,what general kind of work you do? IE: programmer? Sales? Tech implementations? Database Admin? Client care? etc
Bigger Layoffs Are Coming
After a series of layoffs that happened before Q4, there has been a lot of Kool Aid drinking. Get prepared for the big layoffs to occur in November/December. Management is loading up the workload on agents with expectations of completing tasks by the... — read more
Fiserv Forum
Allegedly it's officially "sold out". But is it really? Or is that Marketing trying to push a FOMO narrative? They are riding Sales super hard to sell sell sell and now all of a sudden it's "sold out". Im not buying it.
Hurricane Season
Hoping we have the same level of coordination this year. JSOC does a great job and the team travels to assist our staff in need.
Complete 180
Fiserv used to be a dream job for engineers, but now it’s like a factory for burnout. Pay is nowhere near where it should be, promotions stall all the time, and the best talent is constantly leaving for greener pastures. It’s painful watching a... — read more
closing 1b
q2 2026. fb was the one who wanted it. heard it’s costing us a fortune and that most of us will be asked to be BH-based. potential attendance/remote exceptions for those on LI, etc.
falling stock
stock falling to double digits, forget double digit growth. Too many SVPs with no work from GBS fired, yet no difference. some one in leadership should ask, instead of bull dozing on the employees, what is the company doing to grow and make life... — read more
Chief Data Officer at FB's new place resigns

Fiserv and FIS?
Possible?
4 day work week
Heard Mike is considering a 4 day (10 hours a day) work week. True?
Market Cap Destruction Inc.
How much more until an activist investor says it is time to sell this off in parts?
How are bonus determined
here’s my experience. 15+ years. ever since JG took over FIG here’s what happened. This is relevant to Directors+ In your employment contract they give you a fixed bonus. For example a Director who’s started in 2015 might have a $40k fixed bonus... — read more
Is the SBI still a viable product?
What are the actual benefits of the small business index provided by Fiserv?
I Miss John Gibbons
We will miss John Gibbons. He was the best leader, second to Frank Bisignano, that Fiserv and First Data ever had. His command and control style along with his deep empathy towards our team makes me sad. Wish we could have a few more years of... — read more
Are bonuses good here?
I started recently here and my manager let me know that the baseline expectation is a 9 hour work day for bonus-eligible employees. I learned from a coworker that non bonus-eligible employees are expected to work 8 hour work days. It sounds to me... — read more

The Facts Present Themselves in GB
If you take out the emotion of what the Global Brand leadership is doing, you are left with incompetent people that know nothing about financial services, managing teams in a large corporation and treating their people fairly. These are the facts... — read more

Read the 8k on Gibbons
Now that it's public, perhaps the post won't be taken down! Why are we treating him with kindness internally and saying he retired?? He was ruthless and never showed one ounce of respect for anyone in FIG. He was fired, relieved of his duties... — read more
There are still people left to lay off?
Teams were running on fumes when I was there, and I walked away two years ago. Who are they planning to get rid of now?
Class Action Lawsuit
Anyone else have an investigator with an attorney's office reaching out to them regarding a class action lawsuit?
Whenever there’s a new strategy, there are always at least some cuts
It’s a no-brainer, really. I just hope cuts won’t be massive. Most of us need this job, no matter how little we like it or how underappreciated we feel.
Lay offs may be coming
I know this may be a bit of paranoia and this could genuinely be Mike reshuffling leadership, but with the stock not doing well and rumors of company cutting costs I think it's a bit of a hint that there may be lay offs soon.
MIke Cleaning Shop
Mike really coming in here and firing all the EVPs. Tom, Shannon, and now John.... Whos next??
Sapience gone, Manual Tracking instead
They're now requiring us to record every task we do with a stop clock for 5 days straight. Its starting with a lot of people in our group. they gave us an excel sheet with tasks they claim are a list of everything we do. the list is missing so many... — read more
Unlimited PTO Going Away?
Anyone else hear rumors that unlimited PTO is going away next year?
No rest for us until year-end
Not sure why I still waste energy worrying about layoffs. They're basically a given at this point. Leadership made it clear - more cuts and “savings” are coming through the end of the year. That means stay ready, keep some savings if you can, and... — read more
Harassed, retaliated against, Quit, and still Get harassed
One day at a hackathon November 2023, I was subject to entrapment using a vape pen with an amber liquid cart attached. I reported that along with a few other things. Instead of fixing things, they just retaliate. I left the company 1 year ago, and... — read more

Keep Chipping Away Mike! Next up JG
Make a real move against a member of your MC who has singlehandedly placed his income and expanding real estate holdings over keeping the business afloat. FIG is run horribly!
Having skills makes a huge difference
Getting laid off is stressful no matter what, but there are still solid opportunities if you know your stuff. I found a new role even when people said the market was tough. It is nerve-wracking at first, but landing a good position makes it all feel... — read more
