PaineWebber was a dream company until UBS took over. Good Compensation including bonus, Good facilities, Nice Perks like on-site Gym, Reasonable Parking fees.

Cons

Kiss up Management, Tough Work-life balance. After UBS took over the company went down fast. Lot of good employees left and financially company strugglled as a result the bonuses and compensation did not keep up. The work load quadrupled.

Pros

Great 6-week global training program with all recent graduates (internationally). Competitive post-undergraduate starting salary for the financial sector ($60K + $10K signing bonus).

Cons

In addition to the constant layoffs, much of the best talent has voluntarily departed due to poor management and overall negative view for company future.
