Matthieu Baerts proposed the following answer:
Hello,

> 1) I cannot add workspaces

Yes, it seems Compiz/Unity devs have disable workspaces by default. You
can add more workspace by using Unity Tweak Tool or Compiz Config
Settings Manager (CCSM). Or you can also launch these commands from a
terminal:

    $ gsettings set org.compiz.core:/org/compiz/profiles/Default/plugins/core/ hsize 2
    $ gsettings set org.compiz.core:/org/compiz/profiles/Default/plugins/core/ vsize 2
    $ gsettings set org.compiz.core:/org/compiz/profiles/unity/plugins/core/ hsize 2
    $ gsettings set org.compiz.core:/org/compiz/profiles/unity/plugins/core/ vsize 2


> 2) No unity launcher (left sidebar) and no unity bar at the top (I
liked having them there)

Which session are you using? If you're using a Cairo-Dock session, by default you shouldn't have this Unity Launcher and top bar. If you want to enable it, you can:
 * Start the Ubuntu session and launch the dock (you can use the Launch at startup option from the right click menu)
 * Or you can launch the CCSM to enable Compiz's Unity plugin or use this command:

   $ a=`gsettings get
org.compiz.core:/org/compiz/profiles/Default/plugins/core/ active-
plugins`; echo gsettings set
org.compiz.core:/org/compiz/profiles/Default/plugins/core/ active-
plugins "${a:0:-1}, 'unity']"
