NFT program head quits via resignation letter

“I resigned from Mastercard. For the past year I have been the company’s NFT Product Lead. I promoted Web3 to Mastercard’s leadership and its regional sections, as well as to our Fortune 500 customers and partners. This was not an easy thing to do.”

Thus announced Satvik Sethi, Mastercard’s lead for Non-Fungible Tokens (NFT), his resignation from the company. Among the reasons for dismissal, Sethi cites a 40 percent pay cut after a move from New York to London.

Although the workload increased, (by 200% says the former project leader), the company did not recognize Satvik Sethi’s true managerial status.

The accusations made by the former executive, are those of real harassment by Mastercard, about which he stated:

“At Mastercard, I was subjected to harassment and emotional distress due to a series of poorly managed processes, poor communications, and internal inefficiencies. There were months when I did not receive my salary until I begged the management hierarchy to give it to me.”

Despite his resignation, the former Product Lead decided to continue his adventure in the world of NFTs, with the project called New Beginnings. The project includes 12 different NFTs, already on sale now at 0.023 ETH, about $40.
