Pros

UBS IB is a major player and has a huge exposure to the financial market a lot of interesting transitions going on at the moment despite all the press, the bank is doing well and is on the right track good employer, the firm cares about you

Cons

sometimes I had to stay there even if there was nothing left to do departments need to work closer together, that would help the bank atmosphere between traders and risk departments can be a bit hostile (but I guess that's normal, they have opposite interests) the bank is still using IE 6 as browser..

Pros

UBS had a welcoming culture when I first joined. Colleagues were friendly, nice and helpful. Culture is less competitive as compared to other financial institutions.

Cons

Slow career advancement due to flat hierachy system within UBS. Poor/minimal bonus from 2008 onwards due to the bad performance.

Pros

Great facilities and office environment. A large institution therefore opportunities for growth when the company at large is performing well.

Cons

Politics mixed with greed evitably creates people that are okay with backstabbing one another in the hopes of outshining their peers.
