Pros

Internal mobility is one of the best reasons to come and stay at UBS. I"ve moved around quite a bit and seen my compensation grow exponentially, even through the various financial crises. I've lived in London for a couple years and have traveled to Singapore and Zurich during my time with UBS.

Cons

Swiss culture/mindset is very different than the US, as is the wealth management culture (incl. WMA) vs. the investment bank. This can be incredibly frustrating.
