      Pros

      HSBC Group is a great global company.

      Cons

      Card Services division in Salinas is awful. Morale is at absolute lowest. Group is not committed to card business in U.S. Senior Management cannot be trusted. Hypocrisy and bureaucracy at every turn. Only growth opportunities are if you are willing to go international

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Large organisation, better work-life balance than in other investment banks, pay is OK, though never on the high end, well improved brand in recent years.

      Cons

      Lack of communication between senior and junior staff, complete ingnorance of junior's problems and requirements. Room for improvement in communication between different business units. Careless towards clear career progression planning and feedback / reviewing. Not very friendly atmosphere generally.
