      -CEO brings in a new and energizing perspective -CEO also pushes for diversity, change, and innovation -Company is going through a culture change inviting new ideas, perspectives, innovations, millennial employees -Educational assistance for undergrad and grad school is great -Stock prices continue to prosper in reflection of the embraced changes (cultural, technological, innovations)

      Cons

      -Many old school employees (those before IPO) are resistant to change -Many prefer the status quo -Bureaucracy is a problem causing delays in time to market initiatives and embracing new process improvement ideas -Politics at times play major deterrents impacting project and human resource advancements -Employees feel overbooked with tasks and this is considered 'the MasterCard way' .

      Pros

      Excellent compensation. Good work/life balance. Chance towork on cutting edge projects in financial services industry on right teams.

      Cons

      People skills of most managers is lacking. Movement to senior ranks is near impossible for insider. You can make a long career for yourself by hiding in the weeds and not being a leader on a project. Many peope in ride coattails of a few very talented high performers.

      Job not what was presented in the interview!

      Anonymous employee

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Work/life balance Great commute for those living in Westchester

      Cons

      Too many people have been here forever who are set in their ways and unwilling to allow innovative thinking. If someone sticks around long enough they become a manager - even if they are not qualified. Newcomers are not made to feel welcome by people who have been here for a long time. Having worked in other large companies, the talent at MC does not compare. People stay here because they can't go anywhere else! Not a place for people who are driven.
