Pros

Experienced training managers Good place to learn basics of the business

Cons

Short training times leaves too many unexperienced team members handling work that they have no idea how to complete. Increasing external management hires do not know the platform and are unhelpful. Pay is extraordinarily low for workload expectations and when compared to industry. Especially when licensed Very understaffed

Pros

They’ve got the money to spoil their clients and their staff get the overflow.

Cons

Six interviews to get a job offer. Just for them to never even respond back once the background check was completed. Sloppy HR/recruiting team. Benefits aren’t even that great.

Pros

UBS has a lot of positives and training opportunities. They also strongly support the pursuit of additional education, certifications, and security licensing (and will sometimes reimburse you for them once completed!). They also give advisors and their clients access to many banking products and services that allow you to cross-sell and be a one-stop shop for your clients.

Cons

Being on the right team is crucial. If you are not on the right team, their expectations for bringing in new assets and clients will be near impossible to reach. Very high standards and you don't get paid on accounts less than 250k. There is very little structure provided by the company (as they let you run your book as you want), so making sure you are on a team that has proven processes and procedures to bring in new accounts and maintain existing relationships is critical for success.
