Pros

Fun and friendly environment. Interesting colleagues and strong career progression opportunities. Multiple networks exist and mentoring is strongly encouraged. Moving between roles and areas of the business is also strongly encouraged in addition to geography relocation to encourage diversity and a more complete understanding of the business and challenges. A strong sense of meritocracy makes things engaging.

Cons

Lower pay. Slow moving and conservative organisation at times. Overall, a challenge to do anything new or introduce change, despite the idea that innovation is encouraged. The cogs sometimes feel like they move extremely slow given heavy layers of bureaucracy in some business areas.

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...
