1. Headcount is growing quickly so somewhat struggling to build a strong culture, especially now due to WFH. People are chill and skew to the analytical on average. Generally great WLB (no firm initiatives and little travel), but right now at least I'm working 60 a week regularly. People are respectful of others' time and there's no late night pls fix culture whatsoever. 4-hour fridays (end work at 1) from June to September are nice but hard to keep right now.

2. Projects are mostly analytics (think benchmarking or attrition modeling) and relatively narrow scope growth strategy (think new payments products and lots of customer segmentation), some payments innovation work, some risk. Generally ~8-12 week projects. Some larger programs with varied work at a handful of big banks. No PMO, orgmodel, cost cutting or system implementation work here though.

3. Visa has a pretty good support infrastructure with good internal systems and easy direct access to aggregated data. Lots of SMEs to leverage across the organization globally. Data science and economic insights teams work closely with VCA, so lots of knowledge to access there. However VCA itself is a small org within Visa and doesn't have much support staff, eg slide beautification teams, if that's what you mean. VCA could use a better knowledge sharing system, which is in the works

4. Base varies by location (SF/NYC are higher) and is ~15% below MBB/B4 at MBA level, not sure how it scales from there. 401k match is great. You get some Visa stock at higher levels plus a 15% discount. Expect ~20% target bonus.

C1: any insights on their case interviews? Thoughts on what to expect?
Have one coming up so any help would be appreciated!

Recently had a case study interview with VCA, overall had a positive experience and received an offer shortly after. Expect a traditional management consulting style case interview centered around payments & card issuing strategies. Familiarize yourself with revenue/cost levers of Visa, card businesses, and other Visa's other clients (fintech, retail).

Hi Fishes,

My last working date with TCS is on 4th March 2022 and now they are offering me 80% hike and Canada onsite opportunity and telling that will initiate visa as soon as I take resignation back and also ready to provide written confirmation. On the other hand I have an offer from IBM of 120% hike fixed and performance bonus would be there which I am not considering now.

Which one would be better? please suggest based on your knowledge and experience.

I believe in the philosophy of learning from other's experiences, success stories, mistakes and regrets while keeping in mind that similar set of life events may unfold into totally different ways/outcomes for others as there are always too many variables in the equation called LIFE.
