American Express Senior Lead Reviews

Likes

Salary was very good

Dislikes

Terrible Rating and appraisal system. Also their designations are so limited that most people keep waiting for a promotion for years. (Unless of course you've buttered up your reporting manager)

The open culture at amex is really good. You get opportunities to interact with senior VPs one-o-one. Learning and Development programs for colleagues gives immense opportunities to learn and grow. Colleague Care is one of their top most priority.

Dislikes

Being on a technology or engineering role, you might feel left behind. Product team is the face of the team. It has an upper hand on managing resourcing and talent.

Amazing company to work with. Monetary benefits are really good. Insurance and yearly appraisals are greatly appreciated. Perks are good and play crucial role in employee’s motivation. If you are lucky you will get good managers and work journey would be smooth and promising. Amex is a wonderful company and people in higher management i.e. above band 40 are employee centric.

Dislikes

Work culture of every management is different. Few are really appreciating their team members and few will micromanage and do not support. Few teams do not recognise their employee’s effort. Favouritism will be easily seen. If you make good relationship with manager then good work will come to you and you will be appreciated on regular basis. You will get chance to be in meetings with higher management and that increases visibility.If no good terms with management then they will suppress your good work and no recognition for your extraordinary performance in RnRs. After-all your rating is in their hands. Goal’s rating is under employee’s control but Leadership rating is under your manager’s control. Managers can intentionally ruin rating as they dislike that particular. They wont let to take internal movement. They will give bad feedback so that you dont clear IJPs and leave company with self doubt....Read More

Good policies as compared with other companies

Same typical egotistic managers who hide behind the aura of helping rather than actually helping. No job security at Amex. Appraisals are basis how you get along with your bosses.

Mostly, we work on cutting edge technology

Dislikes

I dislike toxic managers like Vikas Malhotra - who promotes only favoritism. He tends to recognize colleagues based on personal preferences rather than their talents and capabilities. He promotes only those who praise him, while the rest of us suffer under his leadership. This environment is not conducive to growth or collaboration, and I believe it impacts team morale negatively.

Likes

The company care about its employees a lot and support them on every stage of their lives to take necessary decisions

Dislikes

I like the ease about the job being discussed and sharing of right information with all the employees which empowers us to make decisions
