Pros

The benefits, salary, and displacement package were awesome.

Cons

Everything other than benefits and salary.

Too much reliance on Indians, every day you had to worry you would lose a job.

I've worked at Amex over 20 years, and every single day I had to worry jobs were being cut.

The best thing that ever happened to me was being displaced.

At my "meeting with my VP," I was told to please post for other positions, and I said, "There is no way, give me my package and I am outta here."

Life is so much better away from this terrible place.

I don't miss it for a moment, other than some of the women I was friends with.

Advice to Management

Try and have some concern for your employees. Remember, this is "American" Express.
