      Excellent Supportive Environment

      Global graduate trainee
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      HSBC’s graduate scheme provides excellent support in your learning and development through the early stages of your career. The graduate scheme provides insights into several different areas of banking. In addition the employee resource groups and other initiatives means there’s plenty to get involved in ‘side of desk’ for whatever spikes your interest.

      Cons

      The graduate scheme placements are 6 months so if you don’t like a lot of change this would be a con but generally this is a positive!

      Stable company but too slow moving

      Product manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - Pensions - Bonus at the end of the year which most tech companies don't do (can't really think of much else that counts as "Pros, which isn't a good sign)

      Cons

      - As a software product manager, definitely don't join HSBC Digital (or whatever it's called now as they rebrand every 18 months) unless you are in your fifties and looking to just have any job before you retire - Slow slow moving company trying to digitise its analogue processes - Doesn't understand innovation in the B2C retail baking software space - Lots of colleagues were "B players" not doing their best and just there for the stability, leaves at 5pm without caring about the quality of what they do. - Too many people doing "busy work" that has no end user benefit. Perhaps 50% of the staff can (or indeed should) go elsewhere so they can actually find enjoyment in what they do rather than pretend to do useful work at HSBC.
