MasterCard India is a let down to the reputation and brand name of MasterCard Worldwide. Global Policies are employee friendly however diluted when they are extended to India. Eg: lack of open mindedness toward internal job shifts, working from home, no transparency in appraisals. A lot of money is put into lavish town halls and activities however raises to employees is denied in appraisals. Perhaps the only company offering zero hikes in salary appraisal even to performers. Your experience skills,capability and contribution hardly matters what matters is who you know and what they feel about you. In India one is supposed to be multi tasking, flexible and taking more responsibility as opposed to other locations globally. Discrimination towards people inherited from acquired entity. Too much hypocrisy, micro management and spying. Senior management has no clue where are they heading? Objectives are flexed. Ajay Banga is an amazing CEO wish we could say the same about the local CEOs. Procrastinators are abundant within senior management. HRD India is worst - lack empathy and maturity, the MC policies privileges w.r.t awards, rewards, work life balance etc are best exploited by HRD alone.
