I think American Express can take the record of how to recycle folks and keep the air of favouritism alive
We would hire in the rarest occasion people outside American Express
Rest all cases, be it promotions or lateral hires or preference in project allocation, we'll only keep people who've been in American Express for the past 5+ years.
Because we value "external" perspectives and "innovation" & most importantly we're "inclusive"

What is the issue with hiring internally if suitable candidates are available?

like

Agreed
But then you are more likely to promote the ones who're there in the system for long like 7 years as opposed to new ones who're trying to fit in and make a mark.
Also not necessarily all internal ones are so perfect. There's a reason why this organisation needs to think with fresh brains

Can totally relate. Have seen many teams which is lead by directors who doesn’t have the required skillset.. they reached there just bcoz of their connections
