As a leader and a women at Fiserv I am disgusted by the "9 hour mandate". What an insult to those of us who perform at a high level and go home and have a second job taking care of our families. The tone deaf nature of not understanding this... — read more
There was a time
When I actually enjoyed coming in to work, was enthusiastic, and collaborated with colleagues. Now I feel whipped, beaten down, untrusted, and could care less. Now I commiserate with colleagues.
‘Twas the Week Before…
Twas the week before Xmas and all through the house, Frankie was preparing for DC, to go work for the louse. The employees await Senate confirmations, Frank taking the money and fled, while visions of a competent leader danced in their head. With... — read more
Does Fiserv give Christmas bonuses to their employees?
I am curious. I personally think most likely they won’t give Christmas bonuses.
Frank is the Bernie Madhoff of Fintech and the private sector
All he does is buy back stock to inflate the price. Good luck SSA.
Director level. 10 years - now the worst job Ive ever had - mentally ruinsome
10+ years here and Ive tried everything recently to mentally spin whats going on in my head to find some kind of a positive note but I can't. I have none and I'm all out of ideas. Up until the last few years it was good to average. Now its... — read more
Frank’s style
Frank cures bloated bureaucracy the same way chemotherapy cures cancer. He brings employee moral as close to death as possible so people leave and the bureaucracy “is reduced”. He’s going into a Union environment so maybe the SSA will live.
What’s with the rumor about layoffs next week?
I’ve been hearing this rumor for a whole week. Is there truth to it?
I’m doing everything right, but I still don’t feel prepared
I've followed all the advice usually given on how to prepare for being laid off. I polished my resume, networked, and even sent out a few job applications. Saving has been a priority, and I tightened my budget in the past couple of months. I've kept... — read more
Good luck today
Good luck today may the odds be in your favor with the RIF
All these problems after the last layoff....who is to blame
All these production issues after the last layoff....who saw that coming....
Underperformed Were Laid Off They Say....
All these applications issues since the last RIF may indicate they were not under performers. Can't wait to see what the next RIF causes to break.
A new dimension in year end assessments

RTO is apparently serving its intended real purpose well
Good luck to all who will lose their jobs just before the holidays.
More cuts on RTO APAC and US
Got an email today - more RTO cuts coming before Xmas.
To those who stay
Take your time, don’t put in more than you have to. It’s not your job to maintain a company or make up for resources that were let go. Set boundaries. Take your lunch or least two breaks. Don’t take work home. Keep your peace and respect you work... — read more
He did it again
Compared us to McDonalds employees in a chat with a payments analyst. “We've built a culture of in-office. That's the type of company we are. And I say that because all my clients have their employees in their office and their office may be... — read more
No, the cuts aren’t over
The cuts are not finished, and they won’t be for a long time. With the current leadership in charge, they’re more focused on trimming budgets than making things better. It’s a tough pill to swallow, but the reality is, more people are going to be let... — read more
If any other opportunity presents itself, leave!
The longer you stay here, you’ll become more convinced that this is a normal workplace. It’s not.
Of course Fiserv offers United Health Care!
And when we get fired we get to keep paying regardless of whether they approve or deny our health care. Feels good to be here taken care of by Fiserv.
Massive exit will come if the market picks up
1-Clearly these leaders hate their families and they don't want to spend time with them and so they are dragging us with them. 2-The new mandate will drive top performers out of the organization by default. 3- Clearly the company doesn’t care about... — read more
Today's meeting
Curious what the announcement will be made in the MW meeting or will it be rescheduled again. We had a very gloomy meeting with direct manager yesterday and it was stated that if we need another group meeting afterwards that it will be scheduled. — read more
Leadership Hates Their Families
A nine hour work day is now mandated. These people hate their families and don’t want to be home. That is their choice – why do the rest of us have to suffer? I would like to actually spend some time with my family at the end of the day.

We told you so
Old First Data people have been posting about FB since we found this board a few years ago. We’ve never said anything but “get out” and “FB is evil.” It took a while for many to come around but I think we’re all finally on the same page, with the... — read more
Nobody wants to stay here
Who would even want to stick around at Fiserv? Is there anyone left, no matter their age, who honestly thinks they can still grow their career here? It’s hard to imagine. If you’re one of those people, please, let us know what’s keeping you here... — read more
Being laid off now would be a blessing
I don’t know if everything they do now is intended to make us go away or to find reasons to kick us to the curb. I don’t really care. Nobody in their right mind would accept working under the conditions they’ve been imposing on us. I completely... — read more
On FB and management style
A saavy family member told me today that he knew two associates who worked with Frank-en-stone at Fiserv and THEY HATED HIM --- No concern for people, only money, no heart and no soul. Zero. So SSA is going to be another KKR purchase and bye-bye... — read more

Let's embarrass him on the largest scale

Four more years
I’ve got four years left until retirement, but the nonstop layoffs have sent my anxiety through the roof. I don’t even know what I’ll do if I get cut. All I can do is keep hoping I can make it through these next few years, even though it feels like... — read more
Frank headed to run Social Security Admin…
Just read that FB has been chosen to lead the Social Security Admin. Sadly, it’s too late to return Fiserv to the wonderful workplace it used to be before he ruined the culture and caused the Brain Drain.
What media to reach out to?
I want to go to the media about this treatment and the recent layoffs. Can someone direct me where’s the best outlet? I hope to keep it anonymous for now.
