Pros

they paid a decent amount and they don't really require you to have too much experience. But these people are lifers.

Cons

it was mundane work for a mundane company. Little room for growth because my group was small and didn't even look the managers there.

Pros

HSBC is a great place to work. There are politics, like there are at any other large organization. But on the whole I recommend working there.

Cons

The business is downsizing because of the economy. That curtails chances of traveling for focus group, attending seminars and other career-enhancing opportunities

Pros

Initially growth focused. Fun, smart people, helping customers, building a business. Decent pay and great benefits. Parts of the business had strong teams and strong leaders

Cons

HQ in Chicago and London became more hands on and interventionist. They weren't too helpful. Stopped all new originations in 2008; now winding down the portfolio with Customer Service and Collections.
