      Starting your career from HSBC may not be ideal, but retirement may be a good

      Pros

      compensation, perks and promotion (depends on the business you are working on) are okay type. Please keep in mind, since its financial sector, so you should not expect much as IT person (may be core engineering, ITO, Analytic etc)

      Cons

      You would get multiple promotion and big big designation (by name) here. But actually you need to struggle (for searching job outside HSBC) a lot to match similar designation (outside HSBC) and skill sets you have developed (inside HSBC).....huge difference. You may need to compromise your job satisfaction with compensation you would be getting in HSBC

      All over the place...

      Pros

      The work was interesting and the company name is well known and looks good on a resume. They seem to believe strongly in trial by fire, as their training on new systems or proprietary systems is very lack-luster.

      Cons

      Management and objectives are all over the place. They don't seem to have clear goals from year to year except to maintain the status quo with aging systems and IT infrastructure as a whole. From a top down perspective, it seems as if there is a lot of talk about things, but no one really taking action to make things happen, even when things are necessary. They are very reactive to problems instead of pro-active to ensuring problems do not happen.
