Pros

Potential to make a difference to the way value gets exchanged

Cons

MasterCard is a pretty slow company as far as decision making is concerned. People do not necessarily perform, and leaders do not necessarily seek performance.

Pros

Under Ajay's leadership MasterCard has become more diverse. There has been a growth in women and ethnicity within the Purchase location. However, I would still like to see more women in Exectives Roles. It also offers a good work-life balance.

Cons

Some managers lack leadership skills.

Pros

Nice office location at Purchase, great cafeteria. Offices could use updating - its like a step back into the 70's

Cons

Like most large firms it doesnt live what it preaches. Poor management skills are tolerated if the person is senior because it would cost to much to fire them but people further down the food chain are expendable. If you have tenure you are less likely to be fired for poor performance but instead shuffled around the company into a new role
