Pros

- Strong existing platform - Great knowledgeable employees with strong skill sets

Cons

- Sense of strategy and direction have been lost a while back. Seems, on a recurrent basis, a new strategy props up and dissolves quickly along with the people that are part of the strategy - People running around like "headless" chicken - Too top heavy

Pros

good compensation when you start (including life insurance, pension, etc)

Cons

After a few years at UBS, you realise how it's all about politics and people only care about saving themselves. expect to get blamed by everything, even worse when its out of your competence/skillset and team. very bad handling contractors (force them to take leave then fire them while they are on leave, etc)
