Pros

401(k) maybe if your salary is high enough and ESPP, which is discounted.

Cons

Nepotism, bootlicking, bad tech stack, Java everywhere. Restrictive practices include cicd, repos, and wiki pages, all of which require access.

Bad culture, bad vibes.

Advice to Management

I think Visa will never be a great company. At this rate, why not move the entire company to Poland?
