Mastercard

Platform projects get boring after a while

Discrimination within the workplace to minorities but Mastercard claim to be a diverse company! Not the case and minorities are treated different than others.

Poor Salary, Short staffed Teams

Growth is stagnant. Pay is not competitive.

Sometimes leaders can have a different culture of the company as any individual

Work culture is not good

None that I can find

Overtime all the time, overwhelming amount of work. Siloed, slow development teams - in some cases it may take years to deliver basic features. Bureaucracy at it's worst. Yearly salary raises are negligible, they don't even cover the inflation. No employee stock purchase plan available, you can't have a piece of the business you're working to build. People are strangers for the most part. A lot of patting on the back in corporate town halls for all the achievements but the reality is very different. Internal career growth is only possible if you have time to immerse yourself into your desired position by helping someone who's already there. Which you won't due to being overloaded with your own work.

Not a lot of cons i can come up with

They are a big company and they move like it: slow (sometimes too slow), risk-averse (a bit too much at times), and there sometimes can be a thing as too much collaboration…but it’s to be expected with such a complex business and industry.
