Business Outlook
Pros
Competitive pay and competition within the company isn't too stifling. They offer great benefit packages and allow a lot of flexibility in how you want to work with a good work/life balance. I have worked at two other companies prior to this and both other companies had much more serious cultures.
Cons
It is a huge company and does have that huge company feel to it which carries some downsides like it becomes extremely important to be in the right group. A lot of management is incompetent particularly where I work in HR and they would not get jobs at other firms but AMEX is pretty easy with their hiring.
