        Pros

        By far the best company I’ve worked for! I’ve been in small, midsize, higher Ed, and fortune 200 and MerchantE has been a great time! The people are really nice across all departments. We have hybrid working arrangements. The kitchen is fully stocked with snacks and bevs. Unlimited PTO And good work-life balance

        Cons

        The dental plan could use some attention - coverage gets 2/5 stars

        This makes us smile! Thank you for the positive feedback. Having teammates with your positive energy aids in continuing to build our great culture!

          Laid back atmosphere. Tons of support. PTO/Vacation time/full benefits. Great pay.

          Cons

          More pros than cons for me, so none.

          Thank you for your feedback. We agree—it is exciting to see what’s in store for the company as well as the growth and development of our employees!

            Pros

            The office is amazing, with standing desks for every employee, gourmet coffee options, pantry full of snacks and drinks. There are 2 monitors on every desk and every conference room is equipped as a Zoom room. It's wired for productivity! My co-workers are great and they really view us as a team. We are doing a hybrid model where most people are coming in 1-2 days a week, but remote work is completely supported as well. Pay is very competitive and benefits are outstanding. We just got a lifestyle benefit added that provides a reimbursement of up to $500 a year for anything related to health and well-being. Insurance is very good, too.

            Cons

            The company is large and it's difficult with the working style to get to know people outside of your department.

            Thank you for your feedback. We agree—we have a great culture and an incredible group of people here at ME!

              Pros

              What makes this company so great is that leadership and management actually listen to advice from all levels. And if you have a question about anything, your coworkers are glad to help in any way possible. Work load is very dependent on your department, and the credit card industry is complex so be ready to learn. It is a fast-paced and nimble environment with lots of change, but I observe you are able to maintain a work-life balance if you can manage your time. Really feels like friends and family here (and not the family hanging over your head type nonsense). Health benefits are amazing this year and you can tell the company cares about its employees. Mental health and physical health are included! While many companies had to raise health benefit costs for 2022, MerchantE has given us MORE access to health resources without raising our premiums. I truly appreciate this. Pair that with competitive compensation, time off, and a beautiful office space, this is a great place to be.

              Cons

              Not a con, but I hope MerchantE continues to offer remote and in-office flexibility post-COVID. So far, it seems like they will continue a hybrid environment and it may depend on your department if you can be called fully remote or be called into the office 2-3x a week. The office has remained open throughout COVID with safety measures in place which is a plus.

                      Cons

                      I can't think of any downside of joining MerchantE

                        The recruiting, on boarding and training was as good as I have experienced!

                        Cons

                        The only downside is not really a downside if you are a self starter. Some of the departmental material is 'hidden' in file folders but with a few minutes of research you can get what you need to be successful.

                      Is it normal that after the pre-interview with HR, and after he mentioned I would have the first interview with manager xx, he just disappeared? I sent an email and called the office a week later but no answers from him. Is this the way KPMG recruit people? He also contacted me two months later from the day I applied.

                      I've been on the job market for the past 4 months, facing challenges with securing interviews. I'm contemplating enrolling in Career Elevator (www.mycareerelevator.com) to refine my interview skills. Additionally, I'm intrigued by ApplyAll.com, a tool for automating job applications. Has anyone used either program to enhance their job search? I'm eager to learn more and would greatly appreciate any advice or insights you might have! Thank you in advance for your help!

                      Manager

                      Confused. Currently working for a mid sized firm with big clients but have been offered a role through my network for a relatively small startup but a with higher designation / lead role & similar salary to my existing pay. The new role is more strategy + lead but non technical while my current role is managerial level but more technical. If in my position, would you stay in your current role or take the new one?? Happy to answer follow up questions. Thank you.
