How is anyone supposed to stay motivated when layoffs are constant? There's no stability, no security. All of us are just waiting for our number to come up.

Some participants are fluent in the FIS departmental acronyms, most may not be. It can make posts unintentionally difficult to follow. Including full department titles would be so helpful.

Some posts get deleted for obvious reasons, come less so. Are the Terms of Service (TOS) available to read?

Per changes to renewal of H1B visas, the administration has changed the policy. H1B work visas will not have 1.5 years automatic extension, rather the visa holders need to go back to their country. Use this situation in your favor. If FIS is not... — read more 

Hi, I saw a previous post mentioning that Cognizant's FDE role is intended to automate production delivery tasks. At FIS, there are now internal FDE openings, and some employees are being "encouraged" to apply. You might wonder why I'm asking this... — read more 

This announcement from Kelly Beatty yesterday is curious. Evidently, Scot Yarbrough is heading this. Who is he. Brent LaRosa is leaving, he got the usual performative, we wish him well. Anyone else know more?

Any info. out there on TIS modernization projects? Some are under review or shortly going on hold, what does that mean for the future direction of TIS?

They are being investigated for US H1B Visa fraud? It is in the news.

So said a senior leader when the numerous questions from the front line staff about any further layoffs were brought up. Those doing the work are so down and depressed about the circumstances that the managers approached senior leaders to inquire... — read more 

After another round of layoffs ( people who worked over 10 yrs have been layed off shortly after they were celebrated by the upper management although there are seemingly a lot open positions suitable). Offshore colleagues are being solely treated as... — read more 

Another skilled person gave 2 weeks notice today...another skilled top level Engineering manager gone and multiples of teams left in limbo and at the whim of id--ts. No plan, no resolution, nothing from these clowns. I wish they'd lay me off... — read more 

Clocking off at 3pm Fridays is a good thing for employees. The email says flexible working which implies that we are expected to have worked 40hrs by 3pm, which is fine, but it is not clear, especially as hourly staff get a paid day off in lieu. If... — read more

I had my manager call me today and ask for my skills and education background. He told me company is again further more looking at skills and determining who should be placed where. He never used the word layoffs or reduction. CIO tower.

I don't hate my life anymore!

Will there be even more cuts?

Over the years I created relationships with several folks (all key accounts). When I was laid off, I proceeded to tell them all how FIS instructed me to hide SLA misses and breaches at every available opportunity. I didn't tell them NOT to renew... — read more 

I've only been here a few months. If I get cut in the next round, am I getting any kind of severance or nothing at all?

I highly recommend you research the original WP press release. Read it, then reread it slowly. It’s in the first paragraph. To add to that, Exhibit A Certificate of Incorporation of surviving Corporation. Agreement and Plan of Merger.

She just dropped a video talking about how in America you have the freedom to compete, about the american dream. Meanwhile, she lays off all americans to hire Indians. That’s SO tone deaf, pure bs

Hope that everyone can get some rest and recoup regardless of where you find yourself on this carousel of chaos. For those enduring the terrible heat, be careful out there! Even the Tough Love Guru. Seriously, who hurt you?

So disgusting the email from Don Duet while Riffing people that should be here who are talented. More people confirmed let go today. Jason Baklavas chosen to deliver AI when he hasn't delivered anything for Digital in over 2 years and is one of the... — read more 

The People Office Support Centre is a perfect example of technology replacing service without improving the employee experience. Tickets get passed between multiple people, questions go unanswered, and then the ticket is closed. I recently waited 30... — read more 

Pro Funds is leaving on 08/01/2026. Not a large client, but a client, just the same. Evidently, they are not happy either.

One of my colleague and I was terminated on March and 30th June was the last date. I left fis today and my other colleague got in to some other team inside fis even the skills are not matching and the work isn't related at all. I am wondering how the... — read more

Until I find a new job, most of my energy will be spent on that search. FIS doesn't care if you're a hard worker, it'll show you the door either way. So no point in trying. I'll give my minimum and save my energy for my next company, which will... — read more 

Who knows what will happen at the end of the Second Quarter 2026? Be smart on your own behalf.

Let’s get real peeps. FIS bought, absorbed, renamed, reorganized, and stacked business on top of business without ever turning the whole thing into something coherent. Too many layers, too many handoffs, too many teams protecting their little... — read more 

Heard that 3400 long term employees were riffed. No one was transferred to Cognizant. Any reason that FIS went for severance route and no transfers to Cognizant?

Third? Fourth?

So far a very calm day with no notifications that I know of. I'm taking it as a sign it's finally over.

Based on what I have read, Fiserv appears to be making significant staffing cuts, similar to those recently seen at FIS. Many of the employees affected held roles that are essential to keeping the global banking system stable and secure, including... — read more 

Can anyone confirm the great Mr Bob T is still at fis or left last week?

We've undermined the trust you have that your specific expertise and contribution will be valued, that you will grow and advance your career, and that this will be a place where you can actually have an impact. -- Andrew Bosworth of Meta

Do you know of any teams that survived all recent layoffs intact?

If you want to see bad management, look at how layoffs are being handled. One day would have been enough, but they've dragged it out for the whole week, which to some of us feels like forever. For days we wake up stressed wondering if today is the... — read more 

Q2 Earnings will be a disaster (yes, we have a few days left), and all this job cutting will continue throughout 2026. There were no meaningful, needle-moving developments in Q2: no market-disrupting announcements, no material improvement in... — read more
