Pros

Make sure you get into the right team where the manager is respected and the team is welcoming and positive. UBS is known to have cultural issues across generations, gender and internal ranking system.

Cons

You are expected to work long hours "that's what you sign up for", take meeting calls at all hours and then be docked annual leave for medical appointments. If you are studying or have evening lectures, managers will make it difficullt for you. There have been wage freezes across UBS for several years, cheaper employees are brought across from support teams without pay increases. They churn through interns to save costs (higher bonuses for management).
