Mike Lyons gets 70 million in year one while cutting staff, forgoing bonuses or salary increases for many if not all, stating market and company talking points around why they cannot spend money. All while taking 70 million 😂 Incredible leadership... — read more
I see nothing has changed
Left two years ago, just came back on this board to see if things have improved, and it's clear it's all exactly the same. They're still offshoring everything, thinning out US teams, and piling more jobs onto fewer people. My advice is to leave if... — read more

Activist Jana wants Fiserv to sell more assets, refresh board
https://seekingalpha.com/news/4601923-activist-jana-wants-fiserv-to-sell-more-assets-refresh-board---report
The leadership can't act surprised things are breaking
You can't slash decades of collective knowledge for a small budget win over and over again and then look confused when everything starts falling apart. That isn't bad luck, that is the direct result of your own choice.
Mike Lyons - when will you begin to lead???
What are waiting for and why are you so passive? Shareholders have been wiped out and you seem like all is fine. Not it is not! There is one scoreboard for a public company and you are losing. You will be out of a job at some point unless you take... — read more
Pay Increases
on the CGL town hall Adam was very excited to tell everyone that executive pay increases were approved by the board so we can retain top talent like him. i think he forgot the rest of us did not get anything.
Culture is becoming more toxic by the day
I have been here around three years and the tension just keeps building. You can't change priorities every week and then act frustrated when work falls behind. Meanwhile, we can't ask any questions anymore because they often turn into criticism. This... — read more
Replace SLT with AI
Why don’t we just replace the worthless SLT with AI? The direction will be way more focused and with clear strategy. We will save tens of millions if not hundreds of millions when counting stock comp and bonuses.
All was okay until Dhivya started. She’s FB reincarnated
Wake up Mike. Wake up
Mike, board, SVP etc do a search
Mike, board, SVP etc do a search on Google for example.....fiserv su-ks. Take a look at how bad the opinions are of you, your performance and company. Look at all the complaints, absurd fees, lies, etc.. You are Terrible! This should be VERY... — read more
We are beyond streamlining, efficiency, and innovation
Fixing this would take visionary leadership with courage, long-term commitment, and out-of-the-box thinking. Nothing even close is on the horizon. Fiserv will continue until there's nothing left to shovel over to leadership and shareholders. We'll... — read more
Tech leadership update
Yet another MC or a replacement? Cavicchia is the current CTO, but notification just went out for this new guy (same title). What's going on?
Dhivya???? What?
I have a PhD for 20 years now and most of my papers are in AI. I worked for 5 years at Fiserv as a product director before I left! This lady keeps referring to AI, but she is simply talking about workflow and automation. This is not AI. Can someone... — read more
FIG Inc deep dive call
What is your opinion about new deep dive call by Mi? What is happening in that meeting
Where is the innovation
The cure is not in cutting costs. The cure is to innovate its way out of the current predicament. Fiserv seems to be missing that point. Sure you can increase EPS by buying back stock and laying off employees, but thats not going to grow top line... — read more
I think our corporate culture is “Speed Run”
No time to think…just Go!
Face it Mike is THE wrong guy!
He has no clue how to run Fiserv. Dhivya has too much power and is useless. Takis is out and about and never acknowledges he works for Mike. He is plotting to take over. Mike is losing power every day, he is doomed as much as the path he has Fiserv... — read more
PSA: you need clients to run a business
It always amazes me how cr-ppy I fiserv treats their clients. Bad pricing, strong arming negotiations because they are fortune 500 company and it’s hard deconvert , and allowing people with little regard to how they impact that client and even the... — read more
How can this happen with no consequences.
How can 7 out of 10 people quit a group because it was impossible to work with their (New) manager and that manager is still employed. 3 doing the work of 10. What obviously followed was tons of issues, project deadlines constantly missed, lots of... — read more
Job Search Timeline
For those who recently landed a new job: How long did your job search take from the time you started applying until you accepted an offer? What was your overall approach (networking, recruiters, direct applications, referrals, etc.)? Roughly... — read more
I don't remember seeing " Steve iJobs ", he remained Genuine and focussed on true innovations
Fancy Name Tags ( especially as if I invented the AI ) doesn't add ANY value to the corporation..
Isn't it a little bit pretentious...
That Dhivya has updated her email signature to be Dhivya(i) to hammer home the theme of AI prioritization.
Yearly raises and bonus
Who is eligible for a yearly bonus. Doesn’t seem very clear. I am getting the the feeling it’s only for upper management employees.
Project elevate - fallen by the wayside?
Been a while since hearing anything about it - another buried initiative or is this still continuing?
internal move
is it a good move to apply to other positions within fiserv and move , my current work is a he-l in BH
Another day, another new C-level leader announcement. yawn
Because what will Really get us out of this mess are more executives who lead by numbers and have no idea what an “SDLC” even is. yay.
Burnt out
High performer with excellent performance assessments, but I can't do it anymore. Staff cuts have us at bare bones. We do not have the staff to do even an average job anymore, forget about excelling. All we do it jump from one fire to another, a... — read more

Do NOT go to the onsite Wellness centers for Annuals or any checkups.. if you do your health profile is exposed to the employer and will impact impact your employment if it is gets to be a high risk by age. Go to your own doctor outside..
I am so tired of Fiserv
The bureaucracy is insane. You can't get anything done without jumping through fifteen pointless hoops. Pay is below average, which is insulting given what they put us through. Job security is a complete joke now. I'm spending most my free time... — read more
CAN SOMEONE PLEASE FOCUS..........
Pay attention to these Middle Managers causing alot of these issues.....This is conservatively 30% of Fiserv issue. These manager don't even want to manage. It is for money or sponsorship. How is this fair to the reporting worker. I really no... — read more
Feels like this place is in a death spiral anyway
Even if survived this round feels like would already be lined up for the next one. They have zero answers for how to actually win back market share as they aren't willing to invest in actual long term fixes. Everything has just been short term... — read more

Sadly this is true. This place is making more layoffs than you can blink. No region will be spared. This is not fake trust me I’m involved in the discussions.
Bridgeport Partners is set to assume operational control over Fiserv’s ATM business
So basically, Bridgeport Partners owns CSI, which competes with Fiserv, and now they’re being brought in to run parts of our business — are things really that bad?
