Pros

People are very nice and helpful. Even if you're in Asia and need help in Europe for example on some random subject, an email would immediately get you the help you want even if it's for some random request.

Cons

They're way too nice and let mediocrity at times happen. Maybe that's why they're losing steam these days. Also, it can also be quite political. So yes, even though in general UBS rewards based on performance, a lot of incompetent people close to management are kept on as well even if their performance is not up to par.

Good place to get trained and get your licenses. Tough places to develop your business.

Pros

UBS puts a lot of money into training you and helping you get your licenses.

Cons

After you are licensed and done with training you are pretty much on your own. Cold call all day, everyday. This can only work if you come in and partner with a senior broker or if you are very well connected and can get lots of referrals.
