Pros

I didn't have any positive experience. The environment was toxic and no one was interested in my development , just wanted to get the most hours out of me possible .

Cons

The managers didn't support people and help to learn the role, I just felt like a slave basically. Also they play favorites and I got that impression right away.

Pros

NONE (Maybe only that you gets points when you travel but even then EY is extremely stingy in their expense policy) This company does nothing well

Cons

There are too many too count but I will just saw a few 1. You are not working with smart people. There are some so many people that fall through the cracks and that is across the whole organization. If you've ever dealt with a difficult IT person. Multiply the pain you feel by 10 and you'll start to get into EY territory 2. The work sucks. I'm on the consulting side (Financial Services Office) and it's just awful implementation work. Have fun being a glorified PMO. 3. Everything that EY builds is crap. They tout their digital presence and have started to buy some smaller digital firms but they can't even get their own infrastructure to work and make sense. Honestly, people at the top have no idea what they're doing. They are used car salesman with a fancy title. THAT IS ALL 4. Have fun getting peanuts as a bonus. Salary is fine but still doesn't compete with Industry or smaller firms where your pay is actually tied to performance. MY ADVICE TO ALL CANDIDATES CONSIDERING EY IS THIS: TURN AROUND NOW. DON'T GET INVOLVED WITH THIS GARBAGE FIRM

Mgmt uses people and only promotes Foreign people

Pros

With pay being so low and so many foreign workers being brought in to advance I cannot think of any right now.

Cons

Pay, Hours asked to be Donated to company, Advancement within only certain groups, Mgmt giving False Feedback reports so you cannot Advance, Mgmt uses people so they can leave early, Work asked to be started and done when others are leaving on time on Fridays, etc, etc, etc. Do yourself a favor and don't go here. They call themselves the Firm and want to record everything about your family including who they work for and associate with. You are Not permitted to have second jobs unless they approve it. They lie to their clients about so much to add endless hours to be charged to these clients. They want clients to pay for more work that isn't theirs and they push the employees to charge time to them. They let people go with No Warning and No Reason only when people try to tell them they are being Unfair. Do Not apply there it's not worth your time to be used and never recognized!
