Pros

Good culture and environment with really nice people. Salary is very good, very fair. Exec level team is innovative, communicates with employees worldwide, and cares about involvement in the community. Can be proud of company. I switched to Amex from a company that offered none of these things.

Cons

Long term employees should go work at other companies where there is no community involvement, poor exec level team, and unprofessional co-workers. they complain about small things. Sometimes it's slow, bureacratic and hard to move things forward.

Pros

- Complimentary lunch and starbucks everyday - On-site clinic for basic check ups - Hybrid

Cons

you will be taking phone calls every minute of the day. There will come a time where you feel like at the bottom of the world. You will ask yourself "is my role in life to help people reset their password online and assist them in logging in?" You cannot use the bathroom whenever you want, they have time coding that if you "abuse" them you will be flagged and subject to discipline. You have to give world class service but at the same time rush them off the phone or else you are not getting paid a good bonus. You will quickly find yourself gasping for air and time to relax when you take 50+ calls a day , you will feel drained. When is finally time to move up there is a high chance you will be paid less than you're current role as there are no bonuses in higher roles.
