Pros

In my department we had awesome leadership, great pay, great working environment, etc.

Cons

Never knowing if you are going to survive the next round of cuts and outsourcing. Everyone I know that worked there is gone now. We've all been replaced with people who will do less quality work, but hey, it'll be cheaper! AMEX is going to be haunted by their current decisions.

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...
