Pros

UBS has good benefits and training. Healthcare benefits are offered on the first day of employment. The networking is also a major benefit; if you enjoy attending numerous functions.

Cons

A balance between work and life do not exist. Management will sell you on the idea that schedules are flexible, but performance goals are unrealistic. Watch the Enron trading documentary and you will see how UBS operates. The biggest downside is the amount of cold calling that is emphasized. If you do not like cold calling stay away from this type of work. Most managers climbed the ladder during the 90's when cold calling was effective and people wanted to hear about the latest Wall Street concoction. Today, nobody wants to take a brokers call especially for risky products that get you paid.

Large company with multiple geographic locations that allow you to transfer between locations and departments

Cons

Demanding workload, there is a lot of rhetoric about work life balance however the demands of the job dont alow for this balance.
