not great for IT jobs

Pros

Flexible work arrangement allows me to work from home a couple days per week which is really nice

Cons

UBS does not value IT staff like they used to. It was great in the beginning but over time IT became an 'expense' and has been downsized many times over the years. The bureaucracy enormous and unforgiving. Used to be a great place to advance your IT career, now all they seem to want is service providers.

Pros

Good hours. In general you have a good work/life balance. Good benefits plan (Health, dental, etc). The younger folks in the office are friendly and create a good environment.

Cons

Salary is so bad. They will try to pay you the least minimum possible and they will try to keep you at that level as long as possible. Your work will not be appreciated. Even when when you meet the impossible requests, you will always be behind. Work environment that they create is not friendly at all.
