American Express Layoffs 2023
If the economy turns around, do you anticipate any American Express layoffs? Any chatter, news or rumors?
Layoffs
Capital one is laying off employees cutting depts by 50% in zoom meetings?! With a recession upon us, is anyone hearing any talk on our end? It’s giving me anxiety worrying about job security every day. This reminds me of 2009.
AmEx Hiring 1000's of positions
What do you current Amex folks think about the recent announcement to hire a bunch of tech people? I worked at Amex many years ago, well before Ravi, Squeri and a few other CIOs were there. I think Glen was the CIO when I left.
Layoffs
Anyone else concerned about layoffs?
Could this place somehow be less political?
I just hate it how very political everything here is.

American Express Layoffs 2022
How likely is that there will be American Express layoffs? Any chatter, news or rumors?
While I am very grateful for the excellent severance package, I am resentful that at least on my team the layoffs were all among older, tenured
American Express has been layoff-crazed since the early 90s. It is the singular go-to for cost savings by an old school, unimaginative leadership team. I worked there for over 30 years before getting laid off as one if 1500 in early 2020. While I am... — read more
Is there anything new?
Why is it so quiet here? Is it possible that nothing new is happening? At the beginning of the year I was told that I was no longer needed. At first I went through a horribly stressful period, but now I finally got a new job. I just came to see how... — read more

It’s not worth being productive...
Is there anyone here who hasn’t felt favoritism on their own skin? For the hundredth time, I’ve convinced myself that it’s not worth being productive here. Many great workers left this company one way or another, just because they were not favorites... — read more
Tech layoffs have started at axp
16+ years... had one of my best years in 2021 and was let go.... you get exposed to a lot of new stuff and new ideas, but Amex is not known for retaining talent as they don’t want to pay people what they are worth..... I have to agree with the... — read more
Layoffs Abound
I worked at American Express for over 30 years, and what I learned in that time is invaluable. Initially, I was so impressed with the management and the leadership and the employee treatment. That changed over the years, and now the company is known... — read more
No logic behind these layoffs
Why get rid of so many of the best employees? People with the most knowhow and experience? People who it will take at least two others to replace? So many who were cut didn't deserve it while some of the constant underperformers are still here. Can... — read more
Can we get more info on layoffs, please?

2021 Layoffs being Planned now
Sounds like American Express is looking at layoffs to start 2021. They committed to nothing for 2020, but 2021 is another story. The Corp Card business did just remove the leader and brought in someone else. He is known for cutting staff quickly. — read more

Hi, I have been offered a full time position in the Tempe office in the technology division. Can anyone tell me what the current situation is in Tempe?
Ongoing layoffs
American Express is a good place to work at, apart from continuous layoffs that have little logic to it. Latest two rounds make it seem as if they get a number they need to fulfill (for operating costs reductions or whatever,) and they just choose... — read more

Amex really needs to reassess what's core and get rid of all the waste.
My entire group should be let go. It's a group that does nothing to impact the bottom line, although we always find a way to make ourselves look like we contribute significantly There are probably hundreds of other groups like that -- folks at Amex... — read more
