Pros

Benefits & generous 401(k) matching, profit-driven incentives ramp well with seniority Amazing brand, opens doors with customers and partners that would otherwise be shut Genuine commitment to world-class service, and a service-driven ethos/culture

Cons

Glacial, risk-averse work environment - particularly in technology A gnawing sense that this is a brand living on past glories A great place for steady B-players; A-players will be frustrated and leave

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...
