Pros

More than decent salary package. Competitive base pay with ample opportunities for overtime.

Cons

UBS now requires all US employees to move ALL household investment accounts, including retirement, to UBS. So financially speaking you are required to do business at the company store as a cost for working there, and honestly, I received better employee discounts when I worked retail in college. The overall environment between the back and front offices is both contentious and dysfunctional. Management on both sides have implemented policies and procedures that only add to the combativeness between the two sides, and neither wants to meet the other in the middle to create a cohesive work environment. Oh, and watch out for a certain EMD PM, the guy has total disdain for anyone associated with ops.
