Vantaggi
If you want to work for a major player in the Fin Tech industry, FIS is for you. Very large organization with the typical attributes of a large company. They are filled with bureaucracy and NO training or direction for employees. They also pay very well if you had function in a chaotic environment.
Svantaggi
I hired on at FIS with 25 years experience in the financial services software industry. But, FIS does a very poor job onboarding new employees and providing good training, mentoring and direction to ensure the employee have a successful experience. The admission to POOR training came from a discussion I had with one of our human resources staff members. That was a major concern they hear when interviewing employees exiting the company. Poor management structure - FIS definition of manager is someone that knows their products and customers and has been with the company many years. This is a very unsuccessful method to place someone in a management role. I worked at FIS for 3 years and worked directly under my hiring manage for a total of 5 months. Due to project load, I was assigned to another manager's project where I worked for over 2 years. In that timeframe my manager had no communication with the other manager or project team. The training plan for new hire was to sit on client calls 6-8 hours everyday. But, in the meantime there were no training provided other than on videos which you would have to partake after hours without any support. I would not recommend this company to my worst enemy.
