Pros

Great place to work, great team, great culture. UBS has a unique atmosphere as an Investment Bank, and a culture that promotes a good work-life balance. The IT team is a valued part of the organisation, and from an IT perspective UBS promotes the use of industry best practice tools and approaches. UBS has an industry leading career development and career review process which is taken extremely seriously by management, and rewards and promotions are based on merit with a fair and transparent process to back them up.

Cons

Currently undergoing some tough times (as at June 2008), but UBS Investment Bank has good fundamentals and a strong leadership team, so the business and will definitely bounce back strongly as the market recovers.

Pros

The best reasons to work for UBS are the competive benefits. They are very fair with their employee policies. The work is also interesting and at times very challenging.

Cons

Right now some of the downsides are the huge amount of losses that have been incurred by the investment bank. This and the general state of financial services has put us into a very difficult situation. While we once enjoyed a very positive brand image we must now overcome some very bad press. The relatively good performace of wealth management may not get rewarded due to these big losses.
