Pros

People are generally friendly and helpful. Organisation is willing to invest in people although it is a large and bureaucratic place.

Cons

Pay is often poor especially for people who raise up the ranks. Perks are however very good in terms of holidays and healthcare.

Pros

HSBC has great benefits, casual work environment and being a supervisor I really didn't do that much except babysit.

Cons

Working odd hours and Saturdays. Senior management does not run the ship, it is run by HSBC overseas, one day I came into work and we had to let go of 15 employees, right after Household and Beneficial closed! How work friendly is that. No notice to the employees as always.
