      Very unhealthy and unprofessional work culture

      Content management specialist

      Pros

      - Hike was good for the team

      Cons

      - Management is terrible, they treat the Content management team from India as the labor class. They are unapologetic for their behavior and wrong decisions, which is again very unprofessional. - Manager portraying false team image in front of the clients and the management. - The team does not follow any specific guidelines to work, management just keeps on changing the rules according to what they wish without consulting the team members. - Calling team members on personal phones for a favor or during nonoffice hours is also unprofessional

      Redundant systems and Very slow and long processes

      Customer service
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Longest Annual Leave of 26 days, plus 6 days of Childcare Leave. Great colleagues and nice bosses. If you can work in HSBC, you can weather all storms in other companies.

      Cons

      Competent and yet very overworked staff, due to they do not wish to replace staff that have resigned. A lot of systems, if you want to check certain information. Super slow and long processes, as they have outsourced it to other countries. Don't want to upgrade the systems, due to costs...........

      Toxic workplace

      Customer service associate

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Honestly I can’t think of any.

      Cons

      I literally wasted almost 6 months of my life. Waited one month for this background check and i only worked here for 5 months. In this 5 months i was already so stressed up. Too much workload. Shortstaffed. The team mates in hsbc are the worst. They are not warmth to the new ones and not helpful at all. If you are not from banking, they look down on you. And if thats the case, why bother hiring right? Honestly it is so micro managed and toxic. And also, if you make any mistakes, they will just embarrass you infront of so many people. Even when you are new to work they will still expect you to know all. Also, hr is not friendly at all. When they wanted to hire, they were super friendly and even told me that i can call them any time when i need help but after joining I am not able to speak to them at all or when i email them, there is no reply.
