      Don't bother

      Vice president
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Leader in international banking. Pay at market. Good start-up time-off. Exposure to global businesses.

      Cons

      Highly political work environment. US operations have little say and are disconnected from the mainstream of HSBC. US employees (except NYC) are not considered a real part of the HSBC fabric, therefore are not given fair treatments in many aspects, such as career growth, job consideration, benefits, etc. HSBC US is not a stable company to work for especially now amid major layoffs happening in majority of offices. Do not expect turnaround in five years. There will be trickling and endless staff reduction for days to come. Not a place that appreciate talent and hard work.

      If you slowly explore out the company, you will start to hate yourself why you choose to join GLT.

      Pros

      - Consider good work-life balance - Best place to work especially for senior SE level above position. - MSC Status company - On job training provides - Most of the senior SE willing to teach you a lot.

      Cons

      - Salary is the lowest if compare to same batch of Software Engineer in Malaysia. - HR not so efficient and responsive. - Yes, MSC status company(says only), employees wont get any benefit from there. - You wont get approve of the training if there is not related to your current project, just because of the cutting cost reason, but your boss always ask you to enhance yourself.
