Pros

AMEX offers great benefits, a large focus on work/life balance and there is a diverse range of opportunities all in one organization. The AMEX brand is well respected globally. I was proud to work for a company that was both socially and politically positive.

Cons

There were times that the direction of the organization was not communicated well and expectations were high; this created an environment of uncertainty and caused a lot of anxiety within the teams.

Pros

They have fantastic pay for the position you're in, and they teach you interesting and engaging utility of modern technology mixed with legacy fundamentals. I've learned quite a bit while AmEx while getting paid more than fairly - I'd recommend a stretch here to whomever may be reading this!

Cons

The Company is huge, and at times it may take more than a little time to get recognized for your abilities and the growth you've had. There's a reason there is a "only way up is out" reputation exists for some enterprise companies...
