      Pros

      I felt then and still feel they treat their employees with fairness and respect. I don't know about all areas of UBS, but my experience was that I was compensated well, had superior health benefits and was given the opportunity to have a wonderful work/life balance...something I'd never had in my career.

      Cons

      I didn't experience many downsides, except that some of the senior management seemed to have been promoted beyond their capabilities.

      Pros

      Large company with multiple geographic locations that allow you to transfer between locations and departments

      Cons

      Demanding workload, there is a lot of rhetoric about work life balance however the demands of the job dont alow for this balance.

      Pros

      UBS is a true meritocracy where you are evaluated on your skills and what you bring to the table versus the face time that most bankers have to put in. I did my MBA summer and internship there, and because I had such a positive experience, I decided to return full-time after i completed my MBA.

      Cons

      It is an investment bank after all. Thus, work life balance does not really exist. Though, UBS appears to be more fair than other banks on Wall Street. Also, UBS pays slightly less than other banks on Wall Street. That is something to consider when someone who is doing the same job as you is paid 20% more a few blocks away.
