Vantaggi
-Not chained to the branch. -Encouraged to network and attend business seminars/functions to earn more business. -Good work/life balance for the most part. -HSBC looks good on a resume (at least for now).
Svantaggi
-HSBC-US Business Banking is slowly but surely becoming widget-focused despite HSBC's preference for higher-end clientele. -Too many different systems, MCD, CSM, CIF, Callidus, etc. -Callidus is a train wreck that reports incentive incorrectly so you are forced to track down what you should be getting paid. If you don't pay close attention, you might not get paid correctly. -Obstructionist, drawn out, laborious, tedious, hours-long account opening procedures. -Extremely intimidated by government regulators. -Ridiculously conservative lending. -Not a good place for most salespeople.
