I am in a big big big dilemma right now.

Ive been working with BPI Famiy for almost 2 years, and i recently planned to transfer to HSBC. Im 90% done with the process, and just today, i gave my resignation letter to my boss, and hindi nia tinaggap.

the reason why i want to leave bpi. im not happy with my work (sales) , and the pay. and kanina ang offer sakin to stay is, transfer of work (operations) and transfer of BPI (different from Family) (higher pay / benefits)

But then again mas mataas pa rin sa HSBC by almost double the amount with BPI. And problem lang is, im not yet sure what position since hindi pa dini-discuss sakin and what's waiting for me with HSBC

Guys,if you were to choose.... alin?

HELP!!!

HSBC has a lot to offer financially, workmanship and others. Focus more on the job itself. I must say that you should discuss first what position will they offer you at BPI. Then weigh what are the advantages and disadvantages of your work in BPI and HSBC.

If you really like to work at HSBC, you should state your reasons strongly to your BPI boss. He is protecting you because he sees you as a potential and he won't let that get away. So the wise decision is if your BPI boss really dont want you to quit, haggle more for some raise.

I think you ought to make sure first what job is waiting for you at HSBC. If HSBC is offering you a sales job like the one you have in BPI, you might not like it as well.

your boss cannot force you to stay in BPI, even if he didnt accept your resignation, if you want out they cant do anything about it unless you have contract with them, they didnt even give you salary tantamount to HSBC's offer..

Take the risk if you really want to transfer to a new company just make sure that you will be more compensated. And if you're not happy with your present work leave them you will not grow in that company if you have no interest in your work anymore. If you want to stay with BPI because your boss is offering for a transfer you may demand for a salary increase he won't let you go bec. he think that you're a good material in the company.
opinion lang......

oi charmed one! its good to hear that you took the step in resigning and youre finally making your move hehe! my view on this is, take away the salary thing and think which you like better. i heard that most companies offer either promotions or higher pay when resigning (my cousin who has had almost 3 promotions triggered by her intent to resign is still in the same company but she isnt that happy til now) and with the case of bpi, you stated that you are not happy hehe. go HSBC (regardless what position, me job rotation naman daw kse diba?)!! hehe :p

good luck charmed one!! woo!!!

anong exam ba tinake mo, clerical o yung pang officer? kung may job offer ka na from hsbc, usually may sinabi na silang position sa yo di ba? in any case, madali namang mag-apply sa ibang position kung may internal vacancy eh (except na lang siguro kung pangit kang magwork, pero di ka naman siguro ganon).

anyway, i may be biased but i think the prospects for growth, not to mention the compensation, are generally better in foreign banks than in big local ones. masyado kasing malaki sa bpi so baka medyo tough ang competition. ewan ko lang ha, kasi di naman ako nakapagwork dyan.
