There is no need to be disrespectful. You dont own hsbc. Like others, an employee. Share your opinion if you feel like and leave. Dont get into this mode.
Manager's are fighting in front of VP 😅. You have option to choose your own leaves, so as a manager one has to just ensure there is business continuity.
Hello author and everyone reading this.
I have worked in HSBC for quite sometime now. And I have found that that this leave structure differs from team to team. In total 34 leaves are there annually. Some teams have 10 public holidays assigned so out of 34, 10 leaves are mandatory for the assigned date. Rest 24 is upto you. Similarly, the 4 holidays you mentioned means that the team has to apply 4 holidays as a mandate. Rest 30 holidays is upto the individual.
Also, HSBC is very generous when it comes to leaves. So don't worry about leave rejection.
Coming to iCATS, It's a employee work tracker app. But till date I haven't seen anyone being questioned because of iCATS report. Also, the software is buggy. Sometimes it auto triggers leaves(suffered it first hand) and all managers are aware of that. So iCATS is just there. Nobody pays attention to it.
Cheers and a happy new year!

Stop crying, okay?? ! It gives you flexibility to plan your own leaves, which is a terrific thing. e.g. you may not want to take leave on Holi and can take 3 days for Diwali. They have 34 leaves, 10 SL and 1 election leave. So total 45 which is pretty much the same across organisations. iCATs keep running in the background but yeah you need to be logged in for 6/7 hrs atleast else leave trigger. P.S. I’m no longer in HSBC. It’s good relaxed job. Hikes are peanuts. That’s the problematic part.
Other organisations mostly have 30 leaves including PL/CL/SL and 10-15 mandatory holidays. Here you have 34 leaves plus 10 SL that you can use for a day or two. Mathematically, it’s same amount of total leaves i.e. around 42-45. You can very much choose to work on Christmas but take 3 day off during New year as per your choice. It offers flexibility in applying for leaves. You can carry forward only 5 out of 34 days for next year. SL will lapse at the end of year
How will you operate!? Resign and leave
I don't think icats is there in HTI. Only for EDP?
Correct
