Pros

Good work life balance. Low expectations and slow-paced culture. High tolerance for mediocrity. Most employees were not ambitious and did not aspire to grow or go 'above and beyond' or be proactive in their roles. These comments apply to HSBC Finance (the old Household organization located in Prospect Heights, IL, and not necessarily the parent company, headquartered in New York in the United States of America).

Cons

Very conservative organization. Hard to generate impact and results. Bias towwards running business as more of the same. Frustrating environment if excellence is important to you to achieve satisfaction.
