Pros

The company culture is one of openness and opportunity. The management supports employees to not only succeed at American Express but also at life. The culture also supports a very good work life balance. Everyone has moved away from Lotus Notes!

Cons

The company is very large which creates a lot of layers for changes to be made. In the IT department it is sometimes hard to move projects along.
