      UBS - Proceed with Caution

      Anonymous employee
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Global brand name recognition; competitive benefits package, including tuition reimbursement. Robust training and development area encourages professional and personal development.

      Cons

      Extremely bureaucratic. Senior management is the hegemony and promotes people who: a) strictly manage up; b) are cut-throat in their work approach; and c) cater to the whims of anyone with a Managing Director title or higher. Performance is based not on merit but on relationships with senior management.

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      The bank is very good at allowing people to make lateral moves in order to get exposure to other business lines.

      Cons

      The bank treats employees like a number and not like a person. Management constantly changes their mind on how to run the business. The bank doesn't pay based on performance. If your group had a great year, but management doesn't want to grow your business they will underpay and hope you leave.

      Great place to work

      Pros

      Upper management was very intuitive in making the necessary changes to turn the bank around. Was given a lot of independence to complete my own tasks without my boss breathing over my shoulder and within a couple of months my responsibilities doubled.

      Cons

      Hard to break in as people from other teams aren't welcoming to inexperienced hires. There was a lot of redundancies being made while I was there.
