Pros

UBS is THE premiere wealth management shop on the street. It brings a good brand name and pedigree when marketing for clients. With the amalgamtion of so many prestigeous names, Dillon read, warburg, paine webber, O'Connor you have a wide range of experiences and expertises to cull from for when pitching business to clients. The Global asset management arm i think is second to noe, at least among tied Asset Managers. The compensation is also pretty much on par

Cons

The swiss are very risk averse, so you might not get much IPOs if thats your bag. Paine Webber systems are pretty much archaic. too many bolt on applications. Need some more robust.
