I joined American Express as a College Grad. People here at Amex are wonderful, highly professional, never hesitate to lend a helping hand. Work culture here is very systematic and planned, alongside work-life balance is one thing which i highly admire. Talking about person learning and growth opportunities, Amex provide multiple learning platforms and your manager directly tracks your learning goals and progress. There will be proper training for the first month.

Other compensation benefits are quite good but promotional increments are quite low in magnitude for lower designation.

Dislikes

Company is not up to the standards of other American companies, people treat work as first priority, they work to meet the deadlines to impress others hence messing up their work-life balance. Unnecessary meetings and no growth, everything here is in-house application which even mastered will not be useful outside. Everything even useless issues are treated as top priority, if you prefer a job/work which is to impress higher management by showing dominance rather than your talent then it will suit you.

I think salary is not upto the industry mark for Engineers not in Band 35 , means until the experience of 5-6 yrs , you are always below par the industry standard . When I say industry , I mean the companies like Amex , or atleast the ones in financial sector.
