Pros

When I first started in HR, they were a good company. Then they become corrupt in every area manageable. When tried to confront the Leaders in NY, they started to treat me poorly. The writing was on the wall.

Cons

The managerS are allowed to sexually harass their employees and HR won't do anything about it... They HATE the CFPB, they are doing anything they can to and then hide from CFPB... ironically more than 150 disabled employees have left (come to your own conclusion with that) Many employees have tried to sue for the company for harassment due to disability - but squashed due to EMPLOYEE FORCED ARBITRATION. If you go to HR to file a complaint in Florida - expect to be Fired. Amex has been fined under $1Billion from CFPB for banking violations: discrimination, deceptive advertising, illegal card practices, charged unlawful fees, failed to report consumer disputes, billing customers for services they did not receive. AMEX takes away their employee’s and merchants CIVIL RIGHTS through FORCED ARBITRATION. Currently a lawsuit, they are not paying employees for their overtime – AMEX would rather pay for a lawsuit and for lawyers than pay their employees overtime pay. Just laid off 4,000 employees. Several lawsuits in the past few years for FMLA discrimination but were all dropped after AMEX showed proof of arbitration. How do you have so many lawsuits against the disabled? No wonder Costco dropped AMEX in Canada and possibly US as well.

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...
