If one is internal systems and one is customer facing, then choose the customer facing IMO.
But APM is a lower position
Yes but you will likely get promoted in 6-12 months and I’d bet there are a lot more interesting things going on at AMEX than Staples these days
Title is an order of magnitude less important than the experiences you can speak to.
Recruiters are looking for experience and interviewers often don’t look at resumes

Will it be possible to move from Amex to Microsoft in the next 2 years?
Bonus at Amex for that level is only 5%
