When I joined Fiserv, Jeff Y was running the company and all was well. Fiserv and First Data merged and next thing I know Jeff is retiring and Frank takes over. Frank decides to move the mgmt to NJ from WI and buys a huge building that he needs to fill to get a huge tax break from the state. So, not only do a lot of families have to move to NJ, but the entire company stops allowing remote employees and staff MUST work from an office and ALL new hires have to be working in the NJ office. This strategy didn't work and Frank didn't meet the employee numbers he needed and the company DOESN'T get the tax break it expected. So round two of layoffs for 2022 is taking place and there are more to come.
FRANK, please get your head out of your a-s and think of ALL the people that work below you instead of just for yourself. Do you even care how many people you are affecting with your poor management skills. People that have worked at FISERV for 15, 20, 30 years were either leaving on their own because you were making them work in an office for the first time since they were hired. Or, you were letting these senior people be laid off because you didn't think they were needed, when most, if not all of them have more knowledge of DNA in their pinky than you have in your entire body about how DNA functions.
Just because Frank's interest is with payment systems, he seems to forget that the body is made up of many body parts and each has a valuable function. If DNA wasn't making money I could understand running it into the ground. DNA helps bring in the money you need to buy all these little payment companies that you like to play with Frank. What is going to happen now?
Am I upset I was let go this week, yes. Will I ever work at FISERV again, he-l no. That place has no regard for their employees. As a lot of people have said, leaving FISERV was the best thing they could do because they found themselves better of. I'm hoping in a month or two I will be thanking Frank for letting me go and finding the job of my dreams.
For those left at Fiserv, I hope you are not being overworked and worked to the bone. Don't give that place your time or health. They are not worth it.
Thank you, rant is over. :)
