      Pros

      good fringe benefits provided, decent compensation offer, sharp working time, not much OT, good promotion prospect, stable prospect. Highly recommended

      Cons

      I T is an extremely bureacratic banking firm, though with good prestige in the field, you can hardly get access to upper management without years of experience

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - easy work, and easy to get time off - pay is pretty good

      Cons

      - they are actively trying to sell mortgage ops - the management has way too many layers and way too aloof - too many meetings - in terms of employees - most of the really good people have left because of the situation with the company

      If you are ambitious, you may find yourself trying to move faster than the organization itself

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      1) Work-life balance is probably the most distinct advantage that an HSBC job has over that of other banks 2) If you are bright, you will stand out - the general population in HSBC is not stellar 3) Global mobility is HUGE in this bank

      Cons

      1) If you are an accumulator and look upon your job as a way to build assets early in career, FORGET IT. They do not pay like other banks where analysts can potentially gross US$100K plus. 2) You will not be perceived at the brighest out there if you've spent a lot of time in HSBC like for instance you'd be considered if you spent 5-10 years at Morgan Stanley or Goldman Sachs
