Pros

good benefits, good office environment

Cons

poor pay, little senior management direction or communication, no clear strategy, NO opportunity for advancement or promotion, a lot of bureaucracy and office politics. It's about who you know and not what you can accomplish. Management doesn't listen to staff, although they claim that staff feedback and ideas are very important - they're not.

Pros

Many locations to choose from. Good opportunities to learn new skills - if you are in the right group with the right manager. The philosophy is good - execution is tragically absent. They SAY the right things......

Cons

UBS gets caught up in it's own jungle and mess. Managerial communication to employees about timely and relevant items is absolutely lacking in the corporate groups. In fact, managers are rude to the people they manage. Working away from corporate headquarters is much better than the headquarter environment. You actually like your colleagues. your job and might still have fun. Technology is pitiful for such a large "worldwide" organization. Name recognition is not so good any longer.
