Very unfortunate work environment. - Anonymous employee HSBC Employee Review

I've never worked in a more unprofessional setting. There is zero interest in employees as human beings, and internal politics around every corner (which isn't surprising for a big bank, but the entire facade is exhausting). Like many other large organizations, the HR department might as well not exist for all the help it is; further, there have been times when HR has actively caused internal job offers to be revoked due to their absolute lack of communication. My advice to potential job seekers is only to accept a position here as a last resort/to pay off student debt.
