Pros

Executive leadership is exemplary.

Innovation is appreciated.

Cons
  1. Unfortunately, we need to work with middle-layer management, which doesn't have much direction or vision. We become a bunch of order-takers.

  2. Adoption of technologies is one of the slowest in the industry.

  3. Moving between teams to learn on paper is "supported," but when the time comes to move, it is scorned upon.

  4. The HR partner in Bangalore is horrible. My exit process was terrible, to say the least. The moment you tell them you need to get out, it becomes you versus them. I lost my accumulated PTO and, worse off, had to deal with a really bad attitude and almost hate. I would never ever consider Visa Bangalore again for that purpose.

  5. Internal promotions (even before the pandemic) are not consistent, as goals are not accurately set and are hard to track. You have to kiss up; otherwise, hard work alone doesn't get you anywhere.

Advice to Management

Please take care of your good people by promoting more of existing folks. Please, PLEASE review your exit process.
