Trim Controls

Ah.....'trim' the basis of good piloting! Completely ABSENT in Airbus normal ops.
I mean, if you NEVER trim, how are you expected to realise that you are badly out of trim?
Do I understand this correctly:
1. Auto Trim continues to function even though the autopilot has disconnected?
2. There are no trim buttons on the sidesticks?
