Pros

It's a family friendly environment. People are understanding & reasonable when you need to take off and supportive taking the work with you if it still has to get done.

Cons

The pay is not as good as in other similar opportunities. Things often move very slowly and decisions can be overly political.

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...
