Hi everyone,
I’ll be joining HSBC Pune as a Consultant Specialist on 23rd June and I’m really looking forward to starting this new chapter. Before I officially begin, I wanted to reach out to the HSBC Bowl to hear from current or former employees.

Would anyone be open to sharing their experiences, tips, or suggestions that might help me get off to a strong start? Anything I should know about the work culture, team dynamics, or things to keep in mind?

Appreciate any insights—thanks in advance!

Pretty straightforward like an IT company
- Be open and communicative with your leads / managers and colleagues
- Have transparency for your work
- If you’re picking up a lot of work be vocal from beginning
- Be open to feedback and ask for regular feedback (quarterly preferred)
- Complete 2 days or 3 days WFO without fail, they can use it against you if there are any issues
- WLB is decent some days can be mad
- everything depends on your lead

It would be work life balance, as HSBC doesn’t offer any industry best perk to be honest..

Also there are a few petty issues like seats, parking, food in cafeteria..

If you’re okay to let go them, and you’ve a good manager and your team is good, you’ll sail along for a good 2 years!

Nitpickers in HSBC don’t last long, but I’ve seen most of them stay!
