American Express – “Downside for working for a company for a long period of time”
2 of 5 people found this helpfulPros
Benifits--I beleive the benifits are very good.
Cons
I have worked there for so long, the pay ranges increase faster than my raises. So I'm always at the low end of the pay scale.
Advice to Senior Management
Ensure tenured employees are taken care of finanically

Fact is, American Express doesn't give a s--t about their tenured employees. They would rather spend the money continually hiring and training new employees who leave after a few years, than pay their tenured employees retirement benefits. It's scary how many jobs previously held by tenured employees getting close to retirement managed to get offshored to India. If AMEX had laid off every employee in India, there would have been far fewer Americans losing their jobs during the recent "reegineering." Ken Chenault has proven that he's no better than the rest of the Wall Street greed-driven crowd who helped bring this country to its knees

There are no longer any benefits to staying with a company for a long time. Loyalty is no longer appreciated. I have had part time jobs over the years that appreciated me more than AMEX. For years I thought Amex was above all companies..now the wool if off of my eyes. I have spent a lot of money on my education and I still can't get past a B30 position (or interview) even when i meet all the qualifications - -most times you know more than the person you are reporting to and your opinion isnt valued (because you know nothing), so I shut up and just say " Yes" and "whatever you want"....whether it's right or wrong.. It's time to go elsewhere to a company that sees me as a value-add to their organization. Obviously, AMex no longer believe I am....I wish I know what I did and to whom????
