Hearing rumblings of org changes in RC’s team, what/who is changing? Hope they’re not expanding AD’s land of mystery…
Was there a RiF on Friday?
Someone on our team was let go on Friday, was there a larger RiF that happened? I heard about one other person that was let go.
Any engineers out there who can tell us how to check for sapience?
I tried googling it, and it’s either too general or too specific. it looks like their stealth mode is hard to find.
What’s wrong with the new policy?
Outside of your own false hopes and expectations based on unsubstantiated rumors, does anyone have any valid complaints about the new policy?
Sapience gone - No more evidence of overworked staff...
I didn't realize how ridiculous the number of hours I worked per week was until Sapience. I averaged 50+ hours all year, plus commute time. Over the past few months, I was averaging 70+ hours (plus commute time) due to the job I was hired for plus... — read more
It’ll still be the same bad workplace
Sapience or not. Whatever changes are happening, we can be sure none of them are for our benefit or convenience. I gave up hoping things would ever genuinely improve a long time ago.
Use FMLA - that's what it's for
If you need to take 2+ weeks to take care of yourself or your family, take FMLA.
Hires people with fake degrees Solution Architects
Feel bad for the real talent. I don't understand why do they hire without actual background checks all the way to the country of origin. surprising fact is degree (post graduation) is also fake!!!!!
Flexibility
So does this mean I can skip lunch and leave early?
Work from home caps disguised as care!
Nothing has changed here other than a backwards way of capping work from home! Have a sick kid?! Hopefully they aren’t sick more than 10 days a year and hopefully you are designed as high performing. The only thing they are getting rid of is spaiance... — read more
So what changed?
Are they saying that I don’t need 8 hour average in office? I guess no more sapience but nothing really has changed?
WFH NOT COMING
Was just talking to one of our new MC members - he said WFH is not coming back and people should stop with the rumors. What is going on?
When will gibblets leave?
He sold shares and Mike clearly seems to be different than Frankenstein…. So when?
JG Town Hall
Anyone go to the town hall today and notice the Q&A that asked how many closed tickets are in maintenance vs resolved. Explain the difference like I'm 5 and then tell me why they didn't give a straight answer and just kept repeating that the numbers... — read more
If Fiserv had a theme song
I’ll start- Default “Wasting My Time” “No more messed up reasons for me to stay” “Months went by with us pretending When did our light turn from green to red I took a chance and left you standing Lost the will to do this once again” Add yours. — read more
I tried to give it a chance, but Fiserv made it impossible
Toxic vibes from the start, managers who had no idea what they were doing, and a work culture that felt like high school drama with paychecks. I really didn’t want to quit so soon, I don't want a reputation of a job hopper, but staying any longer... — read more
New Policy Soft Launched
At today’s Town Hall, ML and JM said a new policy will be announced on Friday. They didn’t share full details because they want everyone to find out at once. They mentioned they’re “listening to our feedback about wanting more flexibility and less... — read more
Is BH office blocking internet in certain area?
I have been experiencing no data in some parts of the building, is anyone from BH also experiencing same issues or noticing something unusual recently?
Mike if you want us to take care of customers
Then you need to take care of us! No fridays working from home, absolutely no flexibility to handle our children or family with 9 hours in office monitoring our clock in and clock out. Monitoring our daily keystrokes. Barely any time off because... — read more
I'm gone and happy
I even took a pay cut for a role that doesn’t make me dread Mondays. Building new skills from the ground up is scary, I admit, but the peace of mind is priceless. I've learned that sometimes the supposed "step back" is actually the leap forward. My... — read more
Survey on FB Leaving
Anyone else been contacted by a consulting firm surveying on the current state of Fiserv and asking if FB’s departure will tank the company?
VRESIF
Hire at the lowest possible compensation. Hire at higher compensation, spies to spy on them. No products produced. Not sure what drunk mind thought this up.
40% Gibblet?
Gonna offload like your buddy FB?
Interns are here!
The SVPs and VPs unqualified and lazy children started today!! Look around, they’re not doing anything but gossiping all day and can you blame them? They didn’t want this lol. Good for them! Taking the seat of someone who deserved it. At least they... — read more
Jupiter, Fl
Is the Jupiter Florida office still exempt from 5 days a week 9 hours a day?
Could Gibbons and his SLT be any less effective??
They all breed a toxic culture. Led by the man himself - Gibbons. Go across his SLT. Why are some of those people in place?? Where is Frank's famous - intellectual honesty??? Oh wait, never had any. John has multiple people running around in quality... — read more
Any layoffs coming?
It's been quiet on the Fiserv layoff side. Has anyone heard anything? Maybe we can go the rest of the year without any Major layoffs!!
Learned this the hard way
I got burned once by a fake job post that seemed legit. They asked me to use some sketchy app to talk, and I didn’t think twice. Turns out, real employers don’t do that. Now I never share personal info, never list my address, and always double-check... — read more
I'm going to Kansas City, Kansas City here I come
Maybe not… https://www.kansascity.com/news/local/article307522111.html
if you are diligent and have developed irreplaceable hard skills
Being here for just under a year, I have several colleagues who are outright mo--ns and it is hard to find anyone who is here to do anything besides mouth breathe. I used to fix their work, and complain about it and try to fix the root... — read more
The Marketing team party continue with Beyonce
The entire marketing team based in Atlanta flew to New York the other day to have a meeting with themselves, even though they all live in Atlanta and could have met there. Sounds odd until people found out they needed to meet in New York and not... — read more
Question. I want unemployment.
If I just don't do tasks all day, can I still qualify for unemployment? I am trying to find the best way to get RIFd and still get unemployment. I don't like the office policy or sapience. I'm not sure if anyone else noticed me. So far I have tried... — read more
Open letter to our new CEO - Mike
Mike, What is left of your loyal employees have high hopes of you being able to turn fiserv around and truly making it a fintech company. Please remove the draconian measures that we suffer under. Please get rid of Sapience which doesn’t work, and... — read more
