Pros

Many locations to choose from. Good opportunities to learn new skills - if you are in the right group with the right manager. The philosophy is good - execution is tragically absent. They SAY the right things......

Cons

UBS gets caught up in it's own jungle and mess. Managerial communication to employees about timely and relevant items is absolutely lacking in the corporate groups. In fact, managers are rude to the people they manage. Working away from corporate headquarters is much better than the headquarter environment. You actually like your colleagues. your job and might still have fun. Technology is pitiful for such a large "worldwide" organization. Name recognition is not so good any longer.

Pros

Good to have on your resume, people are generally impressed. Not as cut throat as some of the other investment banks.

Cons

My job was particularly boring, though some of the other interns had interesting assignments. In the end, I had to make my own experience.
