Pros

American Express has a history of great culture and great benefits and great treatment of workers.

Cons

I think our leadership, in this high jobless rate economy, is taking it's people for granted and treating them with less and less respect. They are forgetting that the lower level employees (even middle managers) are the ones that deliver the results.

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...
