Pluspunten
If one is looking for an international company with potential opportunities overseas,HSBC is a good possible employer in upper level positions. HSBC does do a very good job at exposing their management group to a variety of training in groups of fellow employees from around the world. This enables an executive to gain great exposure to a diverse perspective and gain some valuable networking connections. HSBC has a very competitive compensation package and is a fairly good work life balance company.
Minpunten
Senior Management is not forthright. This place has a terrible culture. They have never been able to integrate the Household and Beneficial companies into one culture. One must remember that if you are not Brit you will never run this Bank even in the US. HSBC is presently in a no growth mode.
