      Pros

      HSBC has started a work from home program, which is very generous and a good morale builder.

      Cons

      This is a very hierarchal company. There are so many gatekeepers and senior management expects you to be intimidated. In many cases, managers are in the position they are not due to their skill set, rather because they've been with the company for 20+ years. Poor management is not addressed. Many employees are non-degreed and thus intimidated into believing they can't do better anywhere else, so they all just "drink the Kool-Aid" and don't ask questions or rock the boat.

      HSBC - Striving to be the employer of choice

      Pros

      HSBC is constantly striving to be a leader for both the customers and the employees. I feel the pay is above average compared to similar jobs in the area as well the benefits that HSBC offers are second to none.

      Cons

      With the economy the way it is now there are many changes taking place. The upper management isn't communicating with the employees if the changes are going to affect them and how. This is leading to speculation that the site is going to close as did one of the other sites recently.
