HSBC reviews

This place is chaos. It's very hard to make important changes at an intuition this large. In addition, since the parent company is in London, many of the Key Risk Indicators and standards are based on UK standards at the global level and do not account even for the way more stringent US regulatory requirements. If you stay here for a few years, you will be sure to be undervalued and underpaid. The only way to make more money is to work somewhere else. Pay increases are never substantial unless you move up a Global Band tier. Lateral movements do not consider additional responsibility, hours, etc. and are treated the same, so there is no pay increase if you move to VP role to another VP role, regardless of any of the aforementioned factors.

Manager is still adopting condescending style to manage team. If there are mistake found by one staff no matter how trivial urgent meeting held and will be scolded and put down in front of the whole team instead of going for one-to-one coaching or correction of mistake. One of the worst banks in their management style. Feedback is also one way, manager to staff and manager is never receptive of any constructive feedback. It’s her way or no way.
