Pros

Great bonus structure, CEO is great

Cons

I worked in the FIU and it was as toxic as toxic gets. Management shows favoritism and will target anyone they don’t like for no reason. If you make one small mistake in your career it will haunt you for the duration of your employment.

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...
