Pros

You will learn a lot and get skills in wealth building and financial planning

Cons

Getting clients can be tough especially since the firms caters to high and ultra high net-worth clients. UBS wants $1000000 and up investable assets when opening new accounts.

Pros

Amazing work-life balance Great working environment

Cons

There's no fast-track to promotions for over-achievers, as if one had to put in X number of years before standing any chance - and time is bullsh*t when it comes to performance: only tangible results and deliverables should matter

However things are different in the support back office functions. Management often have bad directions or display poor mgt skills of 'cane and stick' method if things go bad and life is v beauracratic
