Pros
American Express prides itself on Work/Life Balance. Obviously, there is some variation based on the group, but overall, does a phenomenal job of it. There are many opportunities for development and advancement because Senior Management is goaled and evaluated against whether their direct reports are achieving their development goals. It creates a culture of collaboration and mutual respect.
Cons
As a large company, it is sometimes difficult to move things quickly or without at least 3 other parties wanting to have their say on an issue.
