Pros

Very positive work experience - I was employed as a consultant and was more than happy to come back for a 2nd assignment. The American Express name is impressive on any resume.

Cons

Really depends on the area that you are working for- I can only describe my experiences in terms of whom I reported to and the projects that I worked on.
