Pros

The most talented and knowledgeable set of travel agents in the world.

Cons

Working weekends, holidays. Raises don't happen. Blame the agent for every error and company takes no initiative to fix the issues. No in house/regional back office support. No one takes responsibility for anything. Computer systems are always crashing and sending simuls. Ticketing in India will let things sit and let fares expire and then you have to call the customer and tell them your previous quote was false. They care about shareholders, not employees. Constantly hiring because they can't keep anyone.

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...
