Pros

Flexible work schedule, opportunities to work virtual.

Cons

Constant change without sharing the vision for the change. Some work is moved around only to change back a short time later after a leadership change, seems like a waste of time and resources just to adjust to the preference of the leader of the moment.

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...
