      Pros

      Great business environment that encourages interacting between departments as well as countries.

      Cons

      In terms of IT, an extreme lack of regard by senior management which could be related to the Head Office being in Pacific Time but North America's business sector is based in Eastern Time.

      Pros

      The pay and benefits were very competitive

      Cons

      I worked in the consumer finance subsidiary (Beneficial and HFC) as we were struggling to survive. A dying company is not a good place to work. The hours were horrible, and our efforts to save our business unit didn't succeed.

      Working at HSBC Securities Services Ireland

      Anonymous employee

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Working at a good location in the Docklands, beautiful new offices. There is an average salary range. Reimbursement for education costs is offered. Skillsoft training is available online in office or at home. It is a stable company. There were a small number of employees laid off in recent credit crunch. Management offered one day of unpaid leave to employees to save money and avoid further layoffs.

      Cons

      There is not much opportunity for pay increase or promotion. We have long working hours at busy times. The HR team is invisible and ineffective with respect to representing employee issues.
