Pros

Focus on the shareholder, customer and employee are all emphasized. Very smart and capable workforce, from top to bottom, and everyone is focused on respect for coworkers. Employee development has suffered from less funding, but not from lowered focus or attention. Strong focus on the customer has provided a superior business model that has proven itself in these difficult economic times -- provides the security of having a positive future!

Cons

Not immune to the pressure on financial services companies.

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...
