Pros

Very generous PTO, fitness center and wellness centers on site, on site cafeteria

Cons

Health benefits are a joke with high deductibles that continue to increase each year. Doesn't matter if you report sexual harassment or sexual assault, as long as you don't go public with it, they don't care about your well-being. The classic over-worked and under-appreciated scenario, no matter how many times you show your hard work. Unless you're part of the good ol boys club. You'll get a raise and promotion. They definitely don't live up to their so-called "Blue Box values."

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...
