Folks, buddy from college got a job Mastercard as senior swe l7. He is bit scared of joining even though tc and brand is good due to economy. Mastercard has this weird 6 month observation/probation period. His org is mdes which is supposedly one of the best orgs in the company. Visa inc, Mastercard, how is environment internally? What are yalls cfo saying? People worried? When rif/layoffs are done, do you get time to move internally? When he checked online he saw lots of jobs like too many openings for company of this size... He is on the anxious side of things since I have known him. Told him repeatedly mass layoffs are unlikely due to how Mastercard makes money and all the open jobs+contractors will be riffed first... Trying to get him to see therapist is my next step 😂 Current tc 100K MC tc 140K My tc 175K
Not unusual for East Coast or outside West Coast. Title inflation plus Big Tech bubble.
mc's senior swe is L7...with that tc lol? visa's senior is L5 and staff is L6🥸
Mc titles are reverse. You start at l10
Hey does Mastercard US has this 6 month observation period for all job offers if anyone knows ?
They can and will term prior to 6 mo without a single warning. Be cautious.
Ex mc?
@OP , did your friend join Mastercard? If yes, how's the environment internally?
What’s his yoe? 140k for a senior in US?? Sounds quite low for a senior
Mastercard senior responsibilities imo seemed like a msft l61 from when he and I discussed offer
Can’t know all the levels and names, but is that intermediate level?
