Pros
HSBC's risk adverse conservative approach has put it ahead of all of the other banks. This was more luck than skill though. Here are a few pluses: - diverse and international, opportunities to move around - best balance sheet on the street - wide diversified client base - they like project managers, so if you are one, this is the place for you
Cons
- Hard to get anything done. - Meetings, committees, politics - General lack of work ethic - Generally Lower-tier people as compared to investment banks - Chaos reins, constant change with little follow-through - Primitive models and technology
