Credit Risk at Amex. No layoffs here. We do have a soft hiring freeze, but there are hiring a going on for other teams. Work culture is decent for an MNC.

From what I have seen, Risk Analyst roles are only for Tier 1 colleges? Any tips on how to make it there?

If it helps, I’m not from a Tier 1 college.

If you can’t make into a huge role from the get go, start low n slow. There’s tons of internal promotions after Year 1 with Amex.

Working at Amazon India Category team. Pretty bad situation with layoffs in other teams. Core Marketplace Category teams have been relatively untouched except 1-2 layoffs under the guise of PIP. But recently got news that an L6 was fired from a mainstream category team. Similarly a director was asked to leave from a non category team. Now they're making us work 14-15 hrs daily under the subtle threats of layoff probability.
