Business outlook
Pros
Solid management; subject matter experts will with you, but you have to track them down. Good work / life balance.
Cons
No advancement opportunities. HSBC isn't looking to hire in North America, and so a transition from contractor to full-time isn't possible. Lots of contractors and some full timers were transitioned to Capco, which has essentailly become the "Target" or Walmart" of consulting firms. A lot of talent was alienated.
