Pros

There are no pros avoid

Cons

Probably one of the worst company I have worked for. 100% office politics, pay is terrible and no benefits, toxic work environment.They preach lies and there is a complete lack of empathy for the employees. Very poor leadership. I left as soon as possible. You are just a number there. Also there products are not what they seem and very expensive for the returns you get. They sell lies be you an employee or a customer. Avoid at all costs.

Pros

nothing special you can achieve the same skill in another company avoiding the burn out.

Cons

working in Amex it was a nightmare to much stress. The shift are not organised at all can happen that you finish to work at 1:00 a.m. and you have to start again at 11:00 a.m. the pressure is to high you have to do the job of 5/6 departments and you are also required to sell. To much stress they wants to reach the excellence killing people.
