Business outlook
Pros
- lots of genuinely lovely, kind and helpful people - amazing offices - the opportunity to work with people from so many different cultures
Cons
- it seems like the same cycle on repeat, bloated company and structure make it difficult to be efficient, restructure, company becomes bloated and inefficient, restructure and repeat - global standardisation makes it harder to deliver results. It's a necessary evil (you don't want different everything for HSBC across different countries), but it makes it really hard to get things done - incessant meeting culture - it's not innovative at all, and barely open to innovation. The people who succeed are the ones who have learned how things work (or don't work)
