Pros

Good people to work with, Good pay,

Cons

- No vision in certain departments by management. - Transfer too many people from other parts of the world (amex), in canadian positions and don't give employees in Canada a chance to apply. - Canada is extremely tied into the US Org (reporting structures, customers, contracts, etc), but Canada is an after thought in any of the decisions

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...
