Pros

The best reason would be the vacation time you are required to take 2 consecutive weeks off per year and you may carry over some paid days year to year.

Cons

HSBC has many positions but they seem to like to hire from outside the company rather than promote from within. Most of the management seem to be out of touch with what they are supposed to be doing it kinda seems like no one knows what there job titles entails. Working for this company is a very stressful and chaotic place to work there is little communication of new policies until after the fact and they are changing all the time.
