Hey,
Congratulations on the offer! Great news.
Mastercard Advisors is external consulting (mostly strategy) working across Financial Services (Corporate Banking, Retail Banking, FinTechs) but they also cover Merchant and Retailers and also Government insitutes (Transit etc.). Most people tend to join from places like McKinsey, BCG, Roland Berger, Oliver Wyman and also Deloitte, PwC and also from in-house Consulting teams in banks etc.
Mastercard have a pretty high retention rate, and most of it is due to the internal opportunities (especially from Advisors) but those that have gone exit to all sorts of places and not just FS but into other technology companies etc. The Advisors business has been a rapid growth story over the last 3 years and expectation is that it also continues (which sounds like a good thing in the current climate!)
Hope it helps :)
