Pros

Overall tries to still have a fun employee culture although that has decreased since the merger (versus Metavante in MIlwaukee as a stand-alone company) Again, depends on what your job is but if you work in a 'corporate function,' I think you have good visibility and networking opportunities that facilitate future moves within the company (i.e. if you wanted to take on a new job in another department, then you would have the credibility built up to do that)

Cons

The social culture that Metavante had and FIS still has mostly can also have the downside of feeling like high school - politics, the 'in club,' office gossip, etc The Milwaukee location has changed significantly in the last year or two as it is no longer the corporate headquarters - and employee satisfaction also decreased sharply as a result

Pros

Most colleagues are well intentioned, but stretched beyond the max.

Cons

After filing for FMLA, my “leader” encouraged me not to involve HR in the future. The whole point of FMLA is job protection. Him making this suggestion, at best, seems highly unethical and potentially illegal. Some leaders are good with people. Others are more techno sound. The ones that can effectively do both are let go. It makes no sense and the company offers little transparency.
