Pros

It is a good place to work as long as you can manage the stress of constant lay-offs (restructuring, re-engineering, migrations, etc.)

Cons

There are two kinds of employees at American Express - those that have been laid off and those that are going to be laid off. Over the last 10 years that I worked there restructuring happened increasingly frequently to the point where it happened AT LEAST annually.
