      Business Outlook

      Pros

      UBS IB is a major player and has a huge exposure to the financial market a lot of interesting transitions going on at the moment despite all the press, the bank is doing well and is on the right track good employer, the firm cares about you

      Cons

      sometimes I had to stay there even if there was nothing left to do departments need to work closer together, that would help the bank atmosphere between traders and risk departments can be a bit hostile (but I guess that's normal, they have opposite interests) the bank is still using IE 6 as browser..

      Review

      Associate director
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      UBS benefits are excellent and internal mobility is good. I started as a temp in back office in 2005 and moved my way to front office Associate director over 4.5 years holding four roles in total during this time. Training has been excellent.

      Cons

      because of UBS size it is easy to feel like you are one of a million cogs in a vast machine. It is difficult to know what the powers that be are doing behind the scenes which can be disconcerting particularly during a market downturn. Transparency in decision making is often opaque.

      Pros

      Fair place to work - good at achieving a work / personal life balance

      Cons

      Career development very difficult and sometimes a struggle to get your work recognised, or get yourself on a program/project when you can contribute as well as gain new experience
