HSBC reviews

I had an extremely frustrating experience with the HSBC recruiting process at the Havelock Mireka Tower branch. After completing the interview and assessment, they spent nearly 3 months just to conduct document verification. Despite frequently asking about my salary expectations, they kept postponing the conversation, saying it would be discussed after the verification. They requested an overwhelming number of documents, including a Gramasevaka certificate, a 5 year police report, employment certificates, house agreements, bank statements to prove previous salaries, landlord letters, landlord id copies, letter from parents etc. I even had to pay Rs. 15,000 just to translate my house agreement! After all that effort, they came back with a ridiculously low salary offer, claiming it was the maximum they could offer for the role. What’s the point of collecting all these documents if they weren’t even going to meet my salary expectations? The process was a complete waste of time, energy, and money. This level of disorganization and lack of transparency makes me wonder how they treat employees if they handle candidates with such disregard.

Typical Hong Kong style front line sales cramped working environment, there are more sales than desks available. Almost no where to sit for work. 5 days work week, Mon-Fri, Saturdays half day rotation Official Contract work hour 9am - 5pm, Reality is 8:30am - 7:30pm, if you leave early people will talk in your back KPI is impossible to fulfill, even if fulfilled they will give even more additionally Upper Level lies about your performance LOTS of UNDERTABLE work ways they request you to do but they keep off the books... CONSTANT WHITE THREATS to warn you indirectly you must fulfill target and regulation or they will FIRE you Just sell... disregard clients need, but fill all necessary forms and audio recordings to keep management out of trouble. No directions or guidelines on document fillings Tedious regulations and procedures within short time frame for each order to be completed Constant cold calls, 8 hours work shift requires you to see 12 clients and must have deals. They don't care about you, just keep the company out of trouble. VERY VERY complicated system to find any useful information Give up your soul and trade for the pay is the general idea of the job nature.
