Pros

The company cares about retaining its employees. The health benefits are great, and you work with people that love what they do. There are many employees there that have spent many decades building their career with the company.

Cons

If you are unlucky, then you may end up with a group where there is no mobility or opportunity for growth. Also, the market level of pay is below that of competitors- the reason for that is the balance of work life.

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...
