Pros

Good work environment. Higher management is very approachable and understanding. Plenty of opportunities for working in different countries, even for new employees. You get a premium account with the HSBC bank which is really nice. Very good training programs for employees, some them are really advanced. Office space is excellent, loved the events and parties.

Cons

Employees using niche technologies have extremely monotonous work and less scope of advancement. Lower management is prone to taking bad decision. Commuting options are bad, especially for employees working odd shifts. Too many processes to follow to the point you spend more time following processes than doing your work. Many of them are practically useless.

Pros

Never come. All the positions and all area is same terrible. HR official turnover rate reach to 15%, some core hard working positions even can be a higher rate

Cons

They don't respect employees, there's a suit in New York area initiated by previous bankers in 2023. Because they asked for a lot of volunteering work on formal job but never pay
