Pros

Pleasant work atmosphere. Nice people.

Cons

Slow, slow, slow. Decisions are made only if 10 people all agree. No one seems that serious about their job/career

Pros

American Express has a awesome Work/Home balance, offers great pay, has plenty of opportunity to advance and offers their employees great benefits.

Cons

They are very firm, there are a lot changes daily to policies and procedures, although there are a lot of opportunities to advance from within the average employee tenure is very high which means newer employees have a lot of competition.
