Scrum Rooms Are Being Repurposed in BH

They are converting all scrum rooms to areas for more desks to accommodate new hires.

This place su-ks. I thought the point of being here was to collaborate with your team. That is no longer possible now.

There is literally no more parking here. These people are just going on a hiring frenzy without realizing this POS building can't handle everyone.

Increased collaboration from your desk via teams instead of in person. The exact opposite reaason given to relocate. Hmmm maybe it wasnt collaboration after all. What else could it be?

In the ohio office we will be rewarded handsomely for taking walks and getting our steps in. Jealous?

So why hasn't anyone called the fire department or another agency that it's at an unsafe capacity? It's a genuine concern.

I think they're only packing in people for a headcount audit. I doubt they're keeping all these employees once FI hits it's target to collect their tax break grant from NJ.

It feels so good coming back to this site and knowing I escaped that place. Like the end of Shawshank.

There are other problems with those rooms. Such as not enough power outlets.

You mean the rooms set aside for special teams to meet and collaborate together in person...gee, that doesn't seem right. What an absolute joke.

This is jappening in other Fiserv locations besides Berkeley Heights. Also in Marietta, GA and Alpharetta, GA.

and just in time for happy happy happy week, the new off campus parking lots at bh look like they’re quite a trek

the closer lot (maybe a quarter mile walk to the orange building) is now off-limits to orange people

so enjoy getting some extra fitness if you can’t find a spot by the building (unless you take the shuttle)

Same thing in Alpharetta and the systems can’t even handle all the people in the building wifi is slow as Christmas. No parking and no way to run to the restroom in between calls bc they are always full…. Sweat shop.

Yep, and so many more are coming. I’m in OH and just saw them hiring my replacement in NJ. Take a look at open jobs at Fiserv. All is remote worker jobs are coming there or Lincoln. Buckle up Buttercup!

You don't need the ability to count to be an executive. Someone else will just figure it out.

I've seen two separate sets of new hires touring Coral Springs campus yet we don't know where they're going.

Building 2 is half empty, at least on the first floor.

Scrum rooms are the big meeting rooms that can accommodate 10+ people.

This was done months ago in Alpharetta... we never meet in person. We only ever meet on teams.
