      Very limited career progression and opportunties but ok work/life balance. Very UK centric culture.

      Pros

      1. Work life balance is more possible to manage than in IB. 2. Industry salaries but on a higher than industry level. 3. Not a competitive environement between colleagues and relatively good job safety.

      Cons

      1. Very process driven and buraucratic organisation. 2. Career progression is not structured. 3. Very stong UK culture - if you are a foreigner that might considerably slow down your possibility to grow and be promoted. 4. Limited career opportunties

      Barclaycard US has great people and interesting work.

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Barclaycard US pays well compared to its competitors and gives out 22 days of vacation to new employees. It has a friendly environment and has a lot of fun and interesting events to keep people engaged. Recently we had a ping pong tournament and have a baseball game planned soon.

      Cons

      Right now most employees don't have laptops so we need to print out presentations before we go to meetings instead of just emailing it.
