      Don’t do it

      Risk management
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      It’s Quiet like a library in the whole building, kind of depressing. People are afraid to speak.

      Cons

      Zero growth, and be prepared to work 65+ hours a week. (even though they’ll tell you it’s a 40-45 hour week max)

      Positive future

      Senior manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Heavily investment in onboarding (felt like a part of the firm immediately). Full service approach and integration of services is way ahead of competitors and more comprehensive than MBB. Can't wait to see how this firm grows over the next business cycle.

      Cons

      The systems and tools are kind of hard. Would be great if we could 2.0 this stuff.. As an example mint.com has all my investments visually displayed...why is GMS such a crazy clunky text based exercise. We have an opportunity to make compliance incredibly useful, not just...compliance.

      Gets a bit worse each year

      CEO approval

      Pros

      Name brand on your resume. Your career path is pretty much laid out for you. Some great people.

      Cons

      The firm makes a lot of work-life promises, but the reality is it has been getting worse each year. We haven't reviewed our global people survey results in our office for the past two years. I think this is because the results have been getting worse each year and no one wants to deal with the issues. EY doesn't fire dead weight. Work is not evenly and fairly distributed. Half of your office will account for 90% of the work. The other half will have it easy and never quit because no one wants them to work on their engagement, but no one wants to confront them and demand they perform better either. The result is you will have people who will float by and be promoted, but really suck at their job. This is the number one cause of workl/life balance issues at the firm. The good people quit and move on because they are sick of being overloaded while the lazy people stick around putting more pressure
