Pros

American Express is very employee friendly company. It is flexible in terms of working hours and work location. Also, the leaders are very open minded in terms of understanding your views.

Cons

At certain times you will feel your work gets stagnant. As its a big company the projects are long-term. However, you still have lots of opportunities to change your team after spending relevant time in your initial position.

Pros

Energetic environment, on site nurse, GREAT sick and Vacation benefits.

Cons

Spend lots of time and money on Townhalls and having Sr Executives fly to SLC from NYC. 2 years ago, they fired both the bank presidents and filled the roles with 2 guys from NYC. Get messages and encouragement from managers that seems to be all talk and no action for your own development. They want you to have your very own "development plan" but don't give you any tools or encouragements to get there. Encourage metnorship and networking, but don't tell you how to advance your career. When you do get a raise, it's only 2% and that's for working your a** all year. They told me there was a hard cap for a raise I wanted for a promotion I received 5% TOTAL including the raise I was already going to get for my annual review.
