American Express Reviews

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...

Advice to Management

Do 6-month evaluations with serious consideration for interior promotions before out-side-in hiring. Then hire only at the bottom level (entry). Let tech. decide when/who to promote for tech. because business holds the wallet, but doesn't necessarily know what's best.

Pros

Great Company with benefits and professional management

Cons

I have nothing bad to say

Pros

Awesome Travel Perks. It's a great step stone opportunity for new comers and fresh out of college.

Cons

Travel consultants are underpaid. Work life balace is not the best.

Pros

Benefits (normal Healthcare, & paid leave)

Cons

The shift including weekends was varied every month. We could ask a few day off request per month shift but should request to the managers 2 months before. An emergent shift change was not acceptable. There was no shift premiums for night and weekends. Some senior staff looked down on junior staff. Other than the benefit which was just the normal level, this position is not so attractive at all. That's why many...

Pros

I love the culture. Everyone is nice and willing to help.

Cons

Nothing big to mention: must improve system (too much shutdowns)

Pros

The salary and perks seemed attractive and the the behaviour was very polite However there was a false hypocrisy and artifice around all of it. I was said that I was not a good fit. It is a very rough experience Left my past job only to find out that others who applied because they had a nap sack on their a k and not a formal suit would be judged as acceptable and if you have a formal tone a rough speaking teen ...

Cons

The cheeky you’re not qualifying you don’t fit in the thinking and believing of the team

Advice to Management

Team should not decide who stays or goes in an employment Don’t take sides

Pros

Great culture , flexible in many ways,

Cons

Outsourcing as many jobs as possible to India and Philippines, pretty soon ALL of those junior and senior positions will be held in those countries at 1/5th local pay. So they still want to make profits from North American customers but dont want to leave the jobs here. The talent in those countries is dismal at best! Local banks do not outsource!

Advice to Management

You may save a few pennies by sending our jobs to those countries but the learning curve is years if not never!

Pros

Flexibility, work-life balance, benefits, people

Cons

Politics, some old-school leaders. Preference of fresh young recruits, vs. experience.
