      Pros

      The company is well capitalized to sustain through the downturn and provides good opportunities for learning and advancement. There is generally a good level of management support for internal advancement and tools to help increase one's knowledge base. Managers are generally good about work and life balance with some tools for tele-working. A good place to work that recognizes contribution and talent.

      Cons

      obviously the financial markets are going through a bit of turmoil though the firm is probably in better position than others. Morale across the industry is low, but likely not specific to the firm (on a relative basis, morale isn't that bad). some beuaracracy as is typical of any big companies.

      UBS, a great place to build a career

      Pros

      It seems that UBS Global Asset Management and UBS, in general, go to great lengths to admit their mistakes and move forward. Even though UBS has recently suffered a tarnished reputation, I have not been witness to any unethical or questionable actions in my division. The firm and the people within my division have made great efforts to build a culture of inclusion and openess. UBS Global Asset Management tries to obtain and keep talented individuals.

      Cons

      I would like entire firm to get a better hold of the actions of questionable individuals and/or business practices. I think UBS has already begun to have better oversight. I simply hope this becomes an ongoing practice.

      Pros

      As a financial advisor that was in a company that was purchased by UBS, I had no choice but to stay. One I was able to leave I did, since I did not like to have to push internal funds.

      Cons

      They have the same issues as any overly large financial insititution; unless you are extremely..I mean extremely wealthy, you will not get as good as service that you would from your local, smaller financial institution. This is one the main reasons that I left. I would rather be able to work with my clients and help ensure their financial success based upon my knowledge, rather than some stuffed shirt.
