Pros

Don't have much to say.

Cons

Amex Bahrain IT department is by far one of the worst places I have ever worked at in my career. IT department is headed by someone by a sales rep and grossly incompetent folks who would other wise have a hard time finding a job in their own country. I would recommend folks to stay away from their IT department.

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...
