Pros

UBS used to have a great global brand and the IB is still very respected in many ways. If you're interested in helping to rebuild the brand it can be a great place - but that obviously doesn't come without risks.

Cons

The financial services industry is in turmoil. There have been lots of layoffs and there are more to come, so job stability is a worry. The changed compensation model might be an improvement, but most staff here feel they've been screwed a bit over the last 12-24 months - and it remains to be seen how and if we ever get back to what many folks expect.
