      Trying to evolve but still not delivering on the promise of "the best place to work"

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Working for a member company of the largest enterprise in the world has the advantage of diversity at all levels, if you are willing to put in the hours and overperform there are great opportunities to advance, locally or internationally. The bank prides itself in being a meritocracy where merit is the basis for promotion, although perhaps not perfect they do try.

      Cons

      A lot of red tape and a policy of salaries below the market average makes you think often that you'd be better off elsewhere. HSBC bought this bank less than 10 years ago and the culture is still mixed, so different people have very different opinion. There are still many old practices and inefficiencies that don't correspond to a global bank, so you have to navigate carefully.

      Good job for somebody who wants to be furniture.

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      HFC/Beneficial: Challenging, fast pace work environment. Stable job with good benefits.

      Cons

      Their products are going downhill, they charge more for the same thing that a custmer could get elsewhere. The pay structure is not fair to the sales personnel. Also, it is a large company and you are nothing more than a number.
