Pros

a true global company, had a lot of exposure to international business. Good work life balance. HSBC allows people to work 2-3 days a week from home.

Cons

HSBC USA is not their main focus, so the career development is somewhat limited to the states. Benefits are getting worse each year, but I think HSBC is not alone.

Pros

Good, smart colleagues in other offices.

Cons

At times, decisions appeared to prioritize individual objectives over team needs, which affected collaboration and morale. Greater consideration of team perspectives and shared goals would help build trust and engagement. I observed instances where expectations communicated to the team were not consistently reflected in leadership actions. Greater consistency between stated values and day-to-day decisions would strengthen credibility and confidence within the team.
