What are the average starting salaries, bonuses, benefits and travel requirements like at HSBC?

What do you like best about working at HSBC? Are there any great perks or special treats for employees?

well, there's only three top tier schools and usually folks go into investment banking...though HSBC isn't the greatest place for that but they still honor what the market will bear (95k base+ 40K sign-on and 10K reloc and year end bonus)

Not for this position. I work at HSBC and the average would be closer to 65K-75K plus potential for 10K per year bonus.

I worked at HSBC for 6 1/2 years in their IT department. The salary was OK (starting £25000, by the time I left, £36750) and in the last couple of years I was there, the bonuses were quite good (£5550 last year). I also found the working environment generally good (the usual stupid rules and bankers aren't the easiest to deal with but generally good).
However, the UK benefits are rubbish (holiday club, standard gym membership offers, money off expensive bank accounts I wouldn't want to take out in the first place). I work for BT now and their benefits are a lot more practical (discounts on BT prducts, discount on high street stores including music, books, supermarkets, computers, TVs, etc.). Salary's better too.
They also handle redundancies appallingly. I was lucky to jump before I was pushed but the bullying by HR into forcing people into positions they didn't want or low redundancy packages was terrifying to a lot of people. Getting people to train overseas workers, then making them redundant because their work wasn't up to scratch, stating that women would get pregnant if they'd just gotten married as an excuse (6 months after making employees go on mandatory diversity training), trying to get review grades down so there was an excuse to let people go. I enjoyed working at HSBC for 5 years but couldn't bear to see how they managed the 'restructure'.

Salaries are not good at HSBC. I worked at their London HO for 2 years. Terrible company to work for. Don't waste time on this company they don't care about their staff, just targets and pound signs.
