      Strong Company, Spotty Managers

      Risk manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Great company that is creating inroads in the Asian Markets. If you would like short term international assignments, this mught be a great company to explore. HSBC is trying to grow the banking business in the US, card business is a drag - but that have put a strong front, growing the private label and parts of the subprime business. Working in those areas will be fun. Strong encouragement of work life balance, remote work etc.

      Cons

      Strong Asian community in the Risk Department in cards. One risk manager managing the Union and General Motors portfolio has bad rep with high turnover. Try to avoid him if you can. In general very hiearchial organization. Tons of bureaucracy - getting a computer could take couple of months.

      Internship in HSBC France

      Intern
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      It's a dynamic and young environment, it is a growing bank in France, hence there are many opportunitities to grow from the professional point of view. In few months i have seen many people changing their role in the department and taking responsabilities for HSBC Europe.

      Cons

      The personal / professional life are not that balanced.. people are working like crazy even if mine is only a support service.
