Topics regarding layoffs at Fiserv Inc.

Not a very forward thinking company.

It's really a shame. This is a pretty good company, but I don't see how we can become a technology leader in the 21st century while we adhere to 1990s business practices. The very idea that bringing workers into offices will lead to better team... — read more

Signs it may be time to leave a job

You are underusing your skills. You are not following your passion. The work environment is unhealthy. There are no opportunities for growth. The company's future is in question. Your ethics are being compromised. You are grossly... — read more

False promises

I was hired about 3 months back being told we would have a hybrid schedule. Now we are told that being in office is required full-time, and those not vaccinated get the luxury of working from home still. Not to mention all the layoffs recently. Not... — read more

People need to move on

Life is too short to deal with this sh-t constantly. I'm giving in my notice this week. Having to deal with a toxic culture, melting pay and benefits, managers who have no idea how to manage, and all that while doing the job I hate... It's not worth... — read more

To the First Data posters

Some advice. I assume others beyond Fiserv and your firm view this page, and if you really want to impress, suggest your language and opinion be more in business tone. Don't refer to others as losers, lost and such. It certainly is true there is a... — read more

Disconnected company culture

Someone mentioned exactly what bothers me the most in this company - there is no good communication and there is a big disconnect within the company. Managers aren’t tightly in sync with workers and they should be. It's frustrating. I don’t know if... — read more

Layoffs versus attrition

During our weekly “Matt Wilcox” call Matt discussed the recent layoffs. Heartbreaking to hear that our company laid off any staff considering how overwhelmed everyone else. Then the call took a comical direction when he started to address the... — read more

Perspectives

The arguments here tend to bash either Fiserv for being useless or First Data for being thieves. Yabuki bad or decent or Frank bad or a monster. This is nothing new folks. GE had a great CEO in Jack Welch and Immelt was a disaster. Home Depot... — read more

our products

I've been thinking a bit about Fiserv's products// I think they should be better, but seems to me that the leadership doesn't give much thought to the ways our products could be improved?

Why don't they want talent?

It's not very clear to me what brought these people to Fiserv in the first place, but those are very talented young people who came here. It was immediately clear to me that they would not stay long. And indeed, one of them left after only a month... — read more

For those of you just laid off, JHA is looking fit solid employees. Check is out! Been there 13 years and while we have laid off a handful, never mass cuts. 2008 Financial Crisis, 0 people laid off! Great culture and committed execs.

Get in the office or else!

Stand your ground.

Just a reminder that Fiserv is a business driven by SLA. They may try to hard ball us into returning to a dreary work environment but if enough people complain or put up protest they will bend. Their SLA and revenue depends on it.

Great job Frank. Running Fiserv into the ground.

Stock hasn’t done anything since the merger three years ago. Go stare at the charts. It was on a constant climb prior. Now. Nothing. And now we have RIFFs. Because revenue is up but your expenses are too high. So instead of being a leader you just... — read more

Yesterday the nation remembered coming together. Although I know not if any Fiserv employees past were lost, this is a day that should remind all the FD and FS posters that there are more important things that combat on this platform.
