High Advancement Opportunities-Low Quality of Life
Business Analyst (Former Employee), Zürich, ZH –
Enjoyed working here on an intellectual basis, however, I thought it was a bit overly aggressive. There are a lot of advancement opportunities at the company. The Investment Bank, in particular, offers significant development opportunities; however, you can expect 100 hour work weeks over most of the year.

Fast paced office that worked together to achieve goals as a team!
Branch Service Associate (Former Employee), Saint Paul, MN –
Pros: free lunches, friendly office staff, great work environment
Cons: short breaks
Working at UBS was an enjoyable job. On a typical day, I would handle incoming and outgoing calls and correspondence, schedule appointments for financial wholesalers and advisers, assist the office with technology and supply problems, and make myself available to support the office however I could.

About my worklife
Senior process executive (Former Employee), Hyderabad,India –
Pros: weekend parties
Cons: no holidays

I have noticed the discrepancies and got them solved in less time and more efficiently. I got the appeciation from the trader and higher officials for the same as i did this in less time and more efficiently. In addition – more...  to this, i have been trained on the whole process and handled all the applications within my 21 months of tenure at Cognizant-UBS.

My co-workers had always been supportive and cooperative which made me work with them happily and comfortably – less

Equity Compensation
Stock Plan Administrator (Current Employee), Nashville, TN –
Pros: flexible work and family balance.
Cons: stressful and heavy workload
A typical work day consist of completing morning settlement work and answer emails. The rest of the day is resolving issues with your clients.

I've learned more about the equity compensation business. The hardest part of my job is that our systems are out dated and need to be upgraded.
