Pros

They have good benefits here

Cons

They do not have any empathy towards their employees (especially the ones on visa) who they work to the bone with 0 recognition or rewards. Completely inept folks are promoted to leadership roles due to them trying to meet the DEI quota with no consideration of the impact to their reports. Talent does not trump internal politics which New leadership has brought in spades. Work here only if you desperately need the listing of a big company on your resume.

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...
