Artificially limited opportunities - Recensione dipendente - Dipendente anonimo presso HSBC

Progression is becoming more and more difficult because the dinosaurs at the top don't like remote workers. People hired remotely during the pandemic are now being told they can never apply for any other role unless they are willing to relocate/pay for commuting to an office across the UK from them. Wages are not high enough to make the expense worth it, this seems to be a push to get remote workers to resign. Those who work remotely are explicitly told that they cannot apply for internal roles regardless of the reason they have been allowed to work from home (new parent / carer / disability discrimination??!). Huge focus on reducing UK headcount and expanding overseas. Constant restructuring - department name has changed 3 times since 2025 and I've lost count of heads of department who have come and gone.
