Pros

HSBC provides a reasonably strong comp package, including sufficient holiday allowance to promote reasonable work life balance and have international opportunities.

Cons

The company seems to support hierachy over meritocracy, and prefers to promote tenure over ability to avoid making difficult decisions.

Pros

Management empathy and support. Recognisition. Coworkers help you in your difficulty. Working conditions are ok. Very good place to learn before you enter real world elsewhere.

Cons

Working conditions average. Buildings average. Facilities provided are average. The systems are not modern. They buy only what is absolutely important. But not a bad place.

Pros

Great business environment that encourages interacting between departments as well as countries.

Cons

In terms of IT, an extreme lack of regard by senior management which could be related to the Head Office being in Pacific Time but North America's business sector is based in Eastern Time.
