      Pros

      Very nice and helpful team. Good compensation considering the amount of work. Very flexible working hours. Very high quality of life in Switzerland, one of the most international countries in the world. Great networking opporunities within your own but also with other divisions. Free use of UBS internal research platform which includes all kind of market and indutrie data.

      Cons

      Sometimes very uncoordinated tasks. Younger employees might find it hard to fit in a pretty "mature" team. Sometimes extrem slow and long communication ways. If you work in Switzerland you have to be fluent in German, French is a big plus.

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      In the business aligned technology groups there are a lot of really bright people working on a wide range of projects using a wide range of technologies. Within IT at least, there is excellent work life balance and a strong collaborative culture, which helps make working that bit more enjoyable.

      Cons

      As a bank, the IT function is huge, so you do get the feeling of being a small fish in a huge sea. Whilst communication and teamwork within the immediate group is good, it can often be hard to see the bigger picture, and cross-division collaboration can be painful. Plus given that UBS was formed through a series of mergers, there is a lot of legacy stuff lurking around.

      Pros

      Great co-workers, confusing but powerful technology platform, great senior leadership, wonderful place to start a career if you want to break into the advisory business

      Cons

      there are a lot of ways this company could get things done faster, cheaper, more efficiently. When information is communicated it rarely tells the full story and is usually just broad statements leaving a lot of room for speculation.
