Pros

American Express values creativity and innovation. The work-life balance is excellent, and the team culture is very supportive. I had the freedom to work on diverse design projects and received regular feedback that helped me grow professionally. The management truly appreciates employee contributions.

Cons

Sometimes project timelines can be tight, and cross-team communication may take extra coordination. Apart from that, it’s an overall great experience.
