Hong Kong is a fast paced city with extremely competitive markets. People moves quickly onto successful ventrues and ideas and is not shy about dumping any non profitable businesses.
Employment is vast for the middle class but the higher paying jobs are fiercely competed for. It all depends on your line of work. As always, you'll do well in anything connected with sales, finance, marketing.
The greatest advantage in HK is the tax system. As income tax max out at 18% and there are no GST, VAT, PST or capital gain tax whatsoever. So even if the gross is a little less, you will net a little more.
