Pros

- Great salary! Well, if you are the CEO you get $100M+, and everyone else gets below inflation annual increments. But maybe one day you could be CEO! - You get to learn how top deal with constant funding cuts, outdated technology and shifting priorities

Cons

- shameful walk back of commitment to DE&I commitments since the last election. Head of DE&I quite and has not been replaced, and DE&I scrubbed from external publications. - central control of all messaging, even internal, out of fear Fox News will find out that Amex is nice to its employees regardless of background - total change in culture and priorities to focus on satisfying regulators, rather than customers, but without senior leaders acknowledging that this is a massive change from the "customer first, growth first, agile first, move quickly" push they were making only a couple years ago - senior leaders don't understand time zones - always needing to do more with no additional resources

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...
