Pros

Pay- competitive salary and bonus potential, great time off, competitive health insurance and 401k.

Cons

You work for a call center. Extremely micro-managed, you will be treated like you're 5. The worst leadership I have ever experienced- it is toxic. They have created a very 'us against you' structure and you get the impression management looks down upon you. You have ZERO voice. If you speak up or say anything you will pay the price. They say there's no retaliation but that is not true- they will find a way to punish you. Basically, while they look great on paper and have great pay/benefits- it is clear you are 1 of 50,0000 and disposable.

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...
