Pros

The CEO is a absolutely phenomenal leader and has a clear vision for the future.

Cons

There are a number of really toxic leaders in the organization and the company is very bureaucratic. While there are some that are now gone, there are still a number that they need to take action on.

Pros

Working on the corporate side as a Recruiter, I had a pretty stable position, because the turnover rate in retail banking was so high.

Cons

HSBC didn't really value employees and they made it tougher and tougher each year for the retail banking staff to earn bonuses.
