Any Amex India veterans, could you please suggest on Job stability ? Have there been any layoffs in Amex India ? I was an consultant to TCS in Amex US and have seen layoffs every year. Not sure if that's the case in Amex India ?

That's scary, so they fire even based on budget cuts and reorganization? Or only if performance is poor ?

Amex India barely has layoffs,only in very rare cases. Layoffs happen mostly in the US ,UK office

Last year jan only lot of people git layoff. Good thing amex provided a decent severance package.

Reorganization is the biggest excuse amex gives in order to do layoff

Deloitte experienced hires, who all received written offers and in process of visa/ onboarding, have you heard back anything about hiring freeze? Or recruiter asked you to delay joining date?

My visa got submitted couple of days back and waiting for decision. When I reached out to recruiter to give her an update and mentioned once there’s decision will discuss on the start date before putting my 2 weeks, she mentioned “Yes, we should talk before you put notice” - Am I overthinking?

Do you pay your credit cards in full every month?

I ask because I’ve let my credit spending get a bit lax since moving and adopting a puppy recently, so I haven’t been paying them off in full every month like I used to (though still well above the minimum payment, and keeping utilization at 30% or under). It got me thinking about how many people adhere to this advice.

I am currently working as a Data Science Analyst in Amex and would like to make a switch to Fraud detection/Credit risk modelling in future.(not in a hurry but would like to start preparing for the same)
How should I go about preparing for it? Is MBA the only course?
My current tech stack is Python, Pyspark, Hive, SQL, ML, DL(specifically NLP based). I have already done MS in CS from IIT Kgp.
I am confused mainly cause the tech stack requirement is similar to my role in the company.
