I would rather you give helpful advice that gives a view into the Amex culture. See my response (as a former Amex PM) for a concrete example. You can do it without listing specific questions, though that is also readily available via Glassdoor.

You got this!!

As a former product manager at Amex, I’ll share a few pieces of advice:
- Amex is a matrix organization so I suggest incorporating that into your examples. Conveying that you understand the nuances of working in a matrix organization (need for “alignment” among stakeholders, working with governance partners, etc) will be beneficial.
- Understand how Amex makes money - be able to speak knowledgeably about the closed loop network and spend-centric model
- Amex does not leverage Agile methodology. It will vary by business unit. I used to call it “fragile” - fragmented agile.
