Pros

The only reason someone would join would be brand MasterCard. an Initial salary and policies may look good but that is everywhere provided for good skills.

Cons

There are unlimited. There is a clear bias and discrimination from the management at the onsite while providing any benefits. They discriminate while providing any policy benefits to the onsite and employees located in Pune. Even the Pune local management has made it worse by following the path of their onsite manager. There is no transparency . They are more interested into creating conflicts, monitoring people for every minute they spend or even for the breaks taken. There is no work life balance, no work or calls from home allowed even when it is late . They are least concerned about full time employees as they think with money they can always choose the contract employees. The power is in the hands of managers and if they want they can do anything even if it is not in line with MasterCard values. And somebody who speaks against them, they make the life miserable. There is also no clear path with respect to career progression as even though good technical talent joins MasterCard, the management without skills not just technical but also people management make the MasterCard brand and image look poor.

Pros

- Initial salary given is good - Technically good scope for learning

Cons

- Great HR policies of MasterCard but poor implementers here in Vadodara - Same kind of work in almost all the projects - Lots of politics and importance is given to how much you bond with the who's who of the company - Onsite opportunities to very remote places

Pros

Brand name company and well recognized. Staff are very good. Salary and benefits good.....however.....

Cons

Mastercard must be worried. This video they made (above) is clearly trying to control the bad press about all their recent firings. There are many people finally speaking out about their age discrimination firings in the US and abroad. They are posting bogus jobs at locations (like Belgium) to give the impression that the office is still relevant when everyone internally knows all the jobs are going (or gone) to London and regions and the office is being closed in a few years. I know for a fact that internal HR people create bogus postings about how great the company is, on sites like Glassdoor to counteract the negative ones. HR and reviews are used as managers to get back at employees or get rid of employees. It is a great set up.
