Wealth management intern
Finance Internship (Former Employee), Boston Ma – December 12, 2012
Pros: in the heart of boston
Cons: expensive area
It was a day filled with reading morning start reports, printing out sheets for my supervisor, and filing stuff. Learning curve was pretty shallow and my boss was a very busy man. He tried to teach me things but I think it was a combination of him being very busy as well as my Schedule that made it difficult for me to get more out of the internship. – more... But if someone worked at UBS full time, I believe it would be a different experience. – less

A challenging place to work.
Senior Application Engineer (Former Employee), Weehawken, NJ – December 9, 2012
I enjoyed my time at UBS and I learned a great deal. The 24 hour nature of trading systems support can be pressure packed. But it teaches you to handle problems with alacrity and aplomb.

Wealth Management Intern (Former Employee), Oakbrook Terrace, IL – December 6, 2012
Everyone I worked with here was a joy and very helpful. My manager was great at his job and probably one of the best I have had. Each day he would take an hour out of the end of my shift and sit with me to go over any issues or concerns I had as well as teach me and show me new material about the financial market. Due to this experience, I have grown – more... to love finance and wish to pursue a long lasting career within the field. Good place to work, as long as you have the right people around. – less

Financial Crisis has badly impacted employee experience.
Director - Corporate Actions Supervisor (Former Employee), Jersey City, NJ – November 19, 2012
UBS is in a significant cost cutting mindset. They have significantly reduced their workforce and are in the process of offshoring many of the operational roles. I would advise against taking an operational role with UBS for the foreseeable future.

Everyone at UBS are very helpful and friendly, take time our of their work routine to share some knowledge of the work they do. – more... I have to say every moment during my years at UBS were enjoyable. – less
