Pros

Very good opportunities and good compensation. Managers are more flexible when it comes to taking time off to do other stuff

Cons

Constrained by hierarchical org structure some times. HR is some times tough to work with. Overall, it was not bad.

Pros

Good vacation, good benefits, starting pay was impressive. Brand recognition (pre-scandal). They give you a nice title. You are empowered to delegate to your peers.

Cons

Compensation went down hill, way down. Hostile work environments. Management will not listen to underlings, only placate. No lunch breaks.

Pros

UBS had pretty good benefits package system and an ok staff canteen. There are also benefits working for a global bank with different business areas

Cons

Politics rather than meritocracy. Lack of good and consistent leadership. Senior management did not appear to have a handle on the issues the bank was facing. Bullying and staff abuse was commonplace and accepted.
