Pros

time off balances, educational stays

Cons

they micromanage the hell out of you while only giving you approximately $20 an hour to book $100,000 worth of travel bookings plus annually. Let’s see where do I even start? They rip your benefits from you literally immediately once you put your two weeks in like petty high schoolers. Barely any room for real growth. I watched a learning and performance trainer get laid off after working with the company for 16 plus years with no valid reason. They pick and choose favorites. They make it impossible to succeed or receive any bonuses no matter how hard you work. Some of the employees such as, Joan Welsh, has worked there for 20 plus years and speak to their employees like they are caged animals with zero rights. The leaders are on some serious power trips and need to get a grip. Hope this helps.

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...
