Alpharetta protest

Who else has heard about the coordinated walk out in Alpharetta

Sunday Scaries

I left on my own for greener pastures last year. I have not had a single Sunday night where I dreaded going to work on Monday. It was daunting and I had to find the confidence but if you are a hard worker, do not undermine what you are worth.

Everyone is a metric, a number and soon a relic

It was just cruel. It hit the old and the new and it also included people who were on leave as well. A lot of the selected were not chosen by their direct leadership team and some leaders did not get the opportunity to advise their employee...it was... — read more

Not my problem anymore

Let them pile on the work as much as they want from now on, it’s not happening. They’ve been cutting staff, dumping the leftovers on us, and we’ve just gone along with it. This makes us as guilty as they are for letting it slide. But that’s over. If... — read more

Catching Up

I just "caught up" on the last week of posts/comments on here and WOW. Here's what I noticed: 1,700 employees RIF'd, people managers must be in office for 9 hours M-F beginning 12/1, and other employees must be in office for 9 hours M-Th (although... — read more 

Paperwork in

Around 1700 let go. More than 50% were over 50. So of course they take more time off- we have earned it! I even specially asked when hired and the response was “you are unlimited”- I took 3.5 weeks with no days off this past year for sickness. Not... — read more

The Lucky Ones

We had 2 managers let go from GBS operations who have been with the company close to 10 years. Now I need to pick up their slack with no extra pay… just new mandates. Why does it feel like those let go with severance are the lucky ones? Were left to... — read more

I took another, less paid job

I just couldn’t cope with toxicity and control at Fiserv. I left for another job 4 months ago. I can’t be happier and more satisfied. It pays less, but life-work balance is great, the team is relaxed and reliable, and the manager is not an obsessive... — read more

You never want to be at the top and at the bottom

Typically Fiserv leadership (and I use that term loosely) cuts the lowest performers based on stacked rankings or performance indicators AND the highest paid. So you may have top performers being cut who have healthy (and often well deserved)... — read more

I'm not grateful to have a job

I wish people would stop telling me that I should be. There's nothing to be grateful for. Horrible pay, horrible benefits, horrible culture, all mixed in with being constantly overworked. I stand behind something I said once before: people who were... — read more

What are you told as the reason you were laid off?

Are those who are recently laid off actually being told it’s because of Sapience hours or is that just an assumption? I’m also wondering if they can withhold your severance if that’s the reason you are let go. I also heard from the grapevine that... — read more

We all are very stressed and exhausted

We should all stop for a moment and think about what we can do about deteriorating culture, toxicity, and pressure, both psychological and work-related, we all are exposed to. I would say that we should support each other and think about ways we can... — read more

Remember to leave reviews on Glassdoor

They are anonymous and it's a metric companies care about. Fiserv is currently rated 3/5 on Glassdoor. I'm sure they have some reputation management company spamming good reviews with bots, but it will at least make some of the HR shills sweat if... — read more

D-mb move when clients need us most.

Why should we care at this point. They trust a flawed computer tracking system and the d-mb people who interpret it more than us. And in a world where we can enable work anywhere anytime and there is no 8-5. We don’t work at a mill with regular... — read more
