Pros

Great people to work with. Co-workers in various departments were always willing to pitch in.

Cons

There were lay-offs at least three times a year since 2007. As a result, employees no longer believe in the brand or in building a career with UBS. The new CEO of Wealth Management seems to be trying to turn UBS into another Merrill Lynch and there is no value on what has been done in the past.
