Pros

Good pay if you make your bonus. Good benefits. Generous PTO. Virtual position. Profit share. Centurion Directors/Senior leadership are great. Building strong relationships with some clients.

Cons

Bonuses vary based on constantly changing metrics-can be 5k or higher or $0, nothing, IMO held accountable in large part for metrics outside your control. i.e you get assigned a not so great portfolio or under-staffed in pod, causing service levels to go down, more mistakes and card member dissatisfaction. Stressful-high demand, sometimes verbally abusive clients. Limited span of control. Have to clean up messes for other people’s mistakes. IMO job is more like a Membership Executive complaint department instead of a relationship manager. In my opinion, MEs are not empowered in their pod. Responsibility but no authority with Membership Managers.

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...
