Pros

Great Salary and Benefits, Lots of great technology to works on. Money to spend on technology often not a blocker. Some of the hardest working and smartest people in IT to work with.

Cons

Lack of real leadership. A lot of managers not many leaders. A lot of politics and not a lot of accountability. MasterCard is an IT Company but many of the Managers lack any experience, vision, concepts or understanding of managing technology. MasterCard management tends to jump on the band wagon on technology and rarely seems to lead. The management has a way of making the engineers and employees feel like they are just cannon fodder.

Pros

Some smart people and strong leadership in pockets trying to do the right thing for the company. If you work in one of those groups, it is better.

Cons

The culture is terrible. The company is not set up for success with Technology and Product always working against each other and finger pointing on every issue.
