Pros

Great facilities and office environment. A large institution therefore opportunities for growth when the company at large is performing well.

Cons

Politics mixed with greed evitably creates people that are okay with backstabbing one another in the hopes of outshining their peers.

Pros

UBS benefits are excellent and internal mobility is good. I started as a temp in back office in 2005 and moved my way to front office Associate director over 4.5 years holding four roles in total during this time. Training has been excellent.

Cons

because of UBS size it is easy to feel like you are one of a million cogs in a vast machine. It is difficult to know what the powers that be are doing behind the scenes which can be disconcerting particularly during a market downturn. Transparency in decision making is often opaque.
