Pros

Great culture, emphasis on team bonding and relationship building. Amiable atmosphere and not cut throat. Good work life balance, especially for working mothers. Programs designed to make you feel like you were part of the firm and not just a number.

Cons

UBS is not in the best position right now obviously. Morale is low, senior bankers are leaving if they can and lack of opportunity and advancement for junior people. Excessive internal regulations means it's difficult to make decisions efficiently and quickly.

Pros

Very minimal pros- you are working in a call center under managers with very little experience.

Cons

Managers are useless. The greater organization refers to the Wealth Advice Center as the “WAC”… yes…. wack. It has a double meaning and the advisors on the ultra high net worth teams are known to make fun of this call center. Very unserious role.
