Pros

Good/decent growth since they place a lot of responsibility on you Some of the people are great to work with, very focused and professional

Cons

Compensation - All of the big 4 underpay with 'future' promises of a windfall if/when you make partner. At the end of the day, after late nights and weekends, you'll feel extremely short-changed. Those who are motivated (and smart) are better served leaving as Managers. Culture - Even though it definitely is not as aggressive as the other big 4, it leaves a lot to be desired. Extremely conservative and risk averse, there is a huge disconnect between the staff/senior and upper management. A spine is something they need, since they often fail to take a stance in front of clients.

Pros

EY's client list in Houston is diverse with many multinational companies headquartered here. EY Gives its auditors the ability to see many different industries. EY offers a very high quality of professional peers.

Cons

Travel can be significant as can work hours during busy times. The productive assets at EY are the people, so work hours are directly tied to profitablity.

Pros

I had a great leader once I got on the editorial team

Cons

the firm is so slow to adapt. Even in 2011 they weren'table to embrace and charge ahead with a solid digital strategy and clung to print. There is also too many remote employees and international teams which makes communication and collaboration hard.
