It has certain imperial aspects, though calling it an empire outright would be silly. As for good or bad, I'd say its influence in the international scene has done more good than bad, especially in the post WW2 context (see the Marshall Plan, Bretton Woods, support to Western Europe through NATO, etc...). There have been very bad things as well of course.
