This guy is a pure talking Trash

Make 'Butt Kissers' Great Again
@g3 Agree!! The fact that DW is still here is. mind boggling. He has been here 7 years and still knows nothing about the industry and we just gave him a segment that only cares about relationships. DW is pure awful!!
We keep the same people in charge who have personally overseen the bleeding of triple digit numbers of clients and somehow expect them to change? DW is another great example.
Nothing to do with Yes Man. Just people with head up a-s promoting people with head up a-s. What's the difference when nobody up there understands anything.
This is a promotion from Dhivya, who doesn’t know the business and used ChatGPT to give her a new reorg chart. She has no idea how bad SK is.
Can someone recap what’s so awful about this guy? He seems universally hated
Every company that actually performs at a high level has one thing in common: leaders who create psychological safety and empower teams to own outcomes. Fiserv somehow looked at that playbook and said “let’s do the opposite.” Srini is the walking embodiment of low trust. He hoards information, punishes dissent, and manages through fear like it is a core competency. In any healthy organization he would be the cautionary slide in a leadership training deck. At Fiserv he is the deck.
The funniest part of Srini becoming COO is pretending this will improve operations. This is the same guy who thinks urgency is a personality trait and that the best way to solve a problem is to yell at it. Now he gets to run the whole show. Expect more dashboards, more panic, more late night fire drills, and absolutely no accountability. Fiserv basically said “our operations are shaky, so let’s hand them to the person who shakes everything.” Bold strategy. Let’s see how fast the wheels come off.
It’s wild watching Fiserv treat Srini like he’s some kind of rare collectible. Every time morale drops another ten points, leadership responds by giving him a new title like they’re unlocking achievements in a video game. At this rate he’ll have his own shrine in the lobby by Q3. The man has become a one person shadow government and somehow the board thinks this is stabilizing. Nothing says “we value our people” like promoting the guy most responsible for driving them out the door.
In the latest episode of Fiserv: Leadership Mad Libs, the company has decided that Srini Krish — already CIO, culture‑crusher, and patron saint of micromanagement — should now also be COO. Because nothing says “healthy organization” like concentrating even more power in the hands of the one guy everyone avoids making eye contact with.
At this point, Srini has more titles than actual deliverables. CIO, COO, Chief Morale Suppression Officer, Regional Director of Fear‑Based Decision Making… the man is basically a walking org chart with a temper.
And let’s be honest: this isn’t a promotion. It’s a containment strategy. When your leadership style is “tyrannical overlord with a dashboard fetish,” the safest place to keep you is in a room with more titles than accountability.
Fiserv really said:
“Is the culture struggling? Are employees burned out? Is turnover skyrocketing?
Perfect. Give Srini another badge.”
Can’t wait to see what he gets next. Chief Empathy Officer would be a plot twist.
