      What is the hiring process like at Mastercard?

      Mastercard reviews

      Product Specialist

      Product specialist
      Current employee
      Warsaw, Masovia
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      The company's key advantages are its stability, a friendly and collaborative team, and the opportunity to work on a variety of diverse projects

      Cons

      complex organizational structure, sudden strategic shifts by the management board, and a lack of clear direction or unified planning for all employees. While this may not apply to everyone, at times it seems that hiring decisions are made out of necessity rather than having meaningful work ready for new hires

      Great culture

      Anonymous employee
      Current employee
      Recommend

      Pros

      Great benefits, culture and office

      Cons

      A very prolonged recruitment process and corporate politics.

      Amazing culture and top-notched work-life balance

      Pros

      I love the flexibility of work-from-home and work-from-elsewhere arrangements! The management ensures team members are encouraged and supported on all levels. The meticulous hiring process provides a great cultural fit right from the start.

      Cons

      The best benefits and work conditions I have ever heard; no complaints whatsoever!

      A unicorn in corporate America

      Senior specialist, communications
      Current employee
      New York, NY
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      It's quite rare to find a company that invests in their employees, hires talent with a culture-first mentality, fosters work/life balance, and actually cares about doing good in the world - somehow Mastercard has managed to do that. Candidly, during my interview process, I didn't believe employees that harped on how great of a culture Mastercard had...after two years of working here, I can say they sure make it hard to want to leave. My experience has been extremely positive, and I feel truly lucky to a) feel actually cared for and invested in by my team/company, and b) contribute to a company who actually wants to make a positive impact on the world. I never saw myself working in payments, but to be this well taken care of truly priceless (no pun intended)

      Cons

      The only con I could think of is just the standard bureaucratic stuff that comes with any large company, let alone a legacy brand. That said in my experience Mastercard has been a lot more transparent around this kind of stuff compared to previous companies I've worked for

      Good vibes and fair interview process

      New Hire, so far so good

      Senior technical program manager
      Current employee
      Atlanta, GA
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Very open, hospitable, inclusive environment.

      Cons

      The hiring process seemed kinda long. One 30 minute HR call and three 60 minute rounds seems like 1 or 2 too many the health insurance is a tad expensive compared to my previous employer.

      Pros

      Good company to work with. People stay longer. Working on latest tech

      Cons

      Over worked and exhuasted employees. No work life balance. Interview process is very old school. They will waste your full day with 3-4 same day interviews. This is gen-Z erra man, how can you waste a full day and do not agree to compensate for the day candidate is taking off from current employer to interview with you. |-_-|
