Pros

- nice colleagues - big name with good equity story on the market, as management is handling CS integration well for investors, but not for employees.

Cons

- office close to the airport is very boring and the facilities are very basic, food quality is low - HR comes up with new "guidelines" to justify why there can be no promotions - a lot propaganda on Ermotti and Kelleher which gets posted everywhere internally - minimal benefits other than the salary and pension fund - very bureaucratic, slow - will be looking to downsize and get rid of people until 2026 at least - yealy salary increase barely offsetting inflation or not even - we are encouraged to use internal mobility but the process is slow, there are many dummy postings, you don't hear back from recruiters - in ubs there is a rule against everything. Don't even like their social media posts, you will lilkely breach a policy - some people are still in Us vs. Them when it comes to former CS colleagues.

Pros

Big bank and wealth management franchise creates opportunities at scale, especially in terms of soft client flow

Cons

Culture is extremely risk averse and toxic, traders are unskilled relative to other banks as they lean so heavily on client flow only, without an ability or mandate to take on risk intelligently. Systems outdated. Integration with credit suisse an absolute mess with many toxic power plays and missed opportunities.
