Growth never happens if people around you aren't reachable. At American Express, you will always find everyone willing to help you out in the best way possible. American Express is the place for finding the best side of your professional aura. Its been 4 years in American Express and I have worked with leaders and colleagues alike. Your knowledge and your skills are valued and you always get rewarded for your extra mile efforts....Read More

Dislikes

Good and highly skilled co-workers is great for team work, and the other side of it is that there is a huge competition for going forward, hence growth here is slower than we can expect it to be. I still don't count this aspect as a completely negative attribute and I can still advocate it by saying "If you are the smartest person in the room, then you are at a wrong place", so don't get scared of challenges, learn to enjoy them....Read More

Toxic work culture and worst management . U can’t work there for more than two years, either they will chuck you out or you will leave by yourself. Over pressure and no work life balance. The only reason they are always hiring is because every year the attrition rate is beyond limits .

Dislikes

Management and politics, work culture

Cab service and free food.

Dislikes

- Good work culture is a scam. The environment in actual in pathetic. There is no process in place to handle incidents of bad behaviour. I myself have faced eve teasing, and when raised it with senior leadership, they asked me to ignore it and focus on work. When I raised it with the CLR team ( colleague labor and relations), they said it doesn't fall under their work basket. The only reason Amex tops in the workplace culture is because they are very good at hiding incidents of bad behaviour. So many people around us have left because of the same. One of the incidents involved someone directly reporting to MD India, still no action was taken. - Promotions are very difficulty to get. There aren't much vacancies anyways, and some of which that do come up, they already have an internal candidate decided. They only post those vacancies in portal for compliance sake. They keep advertising lateral movement instead of vertical movements. - Low salaries compared to competitors. -They have been actively hiring female employees to maintain the gender ratio, but do nothing when we face discrimination by our managers or are misbehaved by other male colleagues. Two female analysts under my VP team have already left this year citing mental health issues. - They are not laying off people because they have been actively placing people in PIP. Every director has been informed the no of people to eliminate from their team. PIP itself creates so much mental pressure that the employee themselves end up resigning. Hence the attrition rates have also increased, but no news of layoffs....Read More

No skill enhancement. Even if you emailed to the Managers or Directores of a particular project to learn their work, it's seldom that you get any reply.
