Pros

Mastercard is a great company for women since they are the only place I’ve seen full commitment to 50/50 hiring and even promotion cycles follow this religiously. If you’re not a woman company is still fine and you can expect a promotion every 2-4 years but you won’t get access to scholarships or special projects but it’s what it is.

Cons

Some areas are definitely overlooked like market delivery. Account managers and advisors get much more benefits and perks it even seems like they are part of a different company. Lastly, and I can’t stress this enough MasterCard is NOT a technology company even if they market themselves as such. There is no chance to develop improvements let alone change old process that after a while it gets really painful dealing with all their legacy systems innovation is dead basically and if they want new tech they buy new companies literally.
