Pros

Good benefits, diverse staff, becoming better at providing work/life balance

Cons

Once or twice a year, American Express goes through a restructuring that affects many departments and results in layoffs. This constant fear of being laid off creates a stressful culture for everyone - even those not laid off are impacted from the stress and additional work resulting from lay offs.

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...
