Mayday, Mayday: Key UBS Leaders (Former Barclays MDs) Abandoning Ship

In a sign of how little confidence key MDs have on the platforms future, several key leaders have left for other banks recently. This includes TMT team #2 leader who headed up Tech M&A. Will be much tougher for UBS to close any deals now.

Would be surprised if they aren’t all looking to all take the circus on the road

No years left on their guarantees so time to jump ship. Good riddance as they all deserved 0 bonuses, which is what they would have gotten this year.

Just gotta RIF Marco @Sergio

 

UBS is awful, interned there there and it was terrible. No deal and angry entitled people. Rerecruiting

 

There are some really bad apples… so much bad  behavior at UBS that should never ever happen in a professional environment. 

 

Many Tech guys are badged to it so they don’t even show up to the SF office everyday
