Pros

Free food 2 days work from home Friendly people overall

Cons

It seems mostly on luck if you’ll get sales You’ll be reading off a script basically where if a disc life is triggered you have to read the entire disclosure. It feels like you’re just reading things 90% of the time. Sales plan is confusing, I asked more tenure people about the sales plan and they couldn’t really explain it to me. You won’t find out how much you are going to make until that month. And you commission is based off of 2 months ago. Being there 1 year everyone wears it like a badge of honor like “I made it”. Which is cool but if has a weird vibe to it, I do t want to feel like I survived. Over all I don’t think you’ll like it if you don’t like reading disclosures all day

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...
