Pros

I worked with and got to know some incredibly talented people. During the good years, UBS attracted great talent and allowed people to take advantage of working for a truly global company.

Cons

company stock is in freefall. Morale at all time low. Prospects for future are unclear at best.

UBS a good place for bankers but not for IT people

Business Outlook

Pros

UBS really pays well compared to other industries. The brand is strong despite the trouble UBS is going through right now. The bank is a true global player, which you can feel in your daily work. You act with dozens of different nations and often work in truly global teams.

Cons

Over the years, I have seen a dramatic shift in how UBS treats IT. IT staff have become a kind of second class personnel who get less promoted, are often seen as "stupid" nerds and have little career progression if remaining in IT. UBS offers career support for bankers or people working in business teams. But there is no career planning for IT people anymore. For your IT career in UBS it’s more important in which country you work rather than how well you perform.
