Pros

Great culture, leaders (managers) really care about you, good quality of life, they've been more than fair and generous to their colleagues in 2020. Great benefits (health insurance,HSA, life insurance, DCRA, the list goes on and on), great mentoring opportunities and opportunities to be mentored.

Cons

I think because it's a bigger company, the tech side can be a little slow-moving with lots of structure and hierarchy to work through before making changes.

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...
