Pros

Some of the best reasons to work for UBS are the global workforce exposure, advanced technology and the benefits. UBS has some of the best people I worked with in my 13 year career in technology.

Cons

UBS ihas a high stress and unforgiving culture. There is a alot of consensus seeking and group think for intiatives which creates a CYA culture and causes projects/change to slow down drastically.

Pros

UBS is a global brand with a huge reach, unfortunately this repuatation has been tainted by a number of issues. The tax issue and the fact that what was once one of the world's greatest banks has been in so many debacles is unthinkable ranging from auction rate securities to the fact that it's spent so much money on recruiting that it couldn't even sell the brokerage unit if it wanted to. It's pretty ridiculous if you think about it.

Cons

Management is inflexible and cannot adapt to the changing conditions. Upper management is even worse resulting in the current state of the company
