Pros

I have been working at the Merchant Risk Council (MRC) for over a year now. I enjoy working with the MRC team as well as the work that I get to do on a day-to-day basis. MRC management provides a great environment to use my current skills, and they also give me the opportunity to learn new skills that will help the organization. The benefits are also a plus, with vacation and sick time being very generous.

Cons

It is a fully remote environment which isn’t for everyone, but management has helped to offset that by bringing the team together at a yearly offsite and allowing work at co-work spaces.

Pros

Great Culture: Everyone is really nice, there is a lot of flexibility, and the company treats employees really well (even going above and beyond to provide nice birthday gifts which was a surprise). It can be difficult to have a strong culture in a remote position but this is an area where the MRC shines. Amazing Benefits: 100% insurance premium coverage for the employee and 50% for dependents and it is really good coverage, lots of vacation time and encouraged to use it, good retirement.

Cons

The MRC has grown rapidly since I joined a little over a year ago and is continuing to grow. There are a few growing pains as the organization overall is figuring out the best way to work efficiently as we scale up. That being said, the process is normalized so as we find out something isn't working well it's easy to learn, adjust, and move forward.
