Pros

Benefits, learning opportunities, and forums.

Senior Leadership.

Diverse cultures and a lot of processes in place to ensure diversity and inclusion.

Cons

Middle-level management is like a lottery.

There are a lot of microcultures within every organization, which largely depends on how the respective VP leads that org.

You can have a very good feeling or the worst feeling working for Amex, depending on where you landed and the kind of VP you work under.

There seems to be a lot of fear of retaliation across the board. Many I spoke to during my tenure expressed it.

Though they see things are terribly going wrong or being treated badly, people hesitate to report it to the next level of leadership.
