Pros

There were great benefits for Egan employees which were associated with working at EY.

Cons

Poor training. Low pay. Unreasonable expectations. Disorganized management by the lawyers. Lack of recognition. Extremely high turnover. This is why there are always job postings at Egan LLP. The lawyers at Egan will not hesitate to replace their support staff with a new employee for lower pay. Lack of interest in the professional development of their clerks and support staff. Clerks and other support staff were consistently overworked. Managing lawyers were reluctant to pay for overtime hours, unless they exceeded 50 hours. Managing lawyers used subtle threats to increase competition and to influence clerks to put in long hours. The HR department in this company does not care about its employees, and did not effectively address the issues that were brought up by the support staff.

Pros

Continuing education and curriculum is very good. Available thought leadership is good ... could be better, Ability to move up through the lower ranks (thru Manager) is very good. Great exposure to the Finance and Business world for someone just out college or graduate school. Experience gained will serve you well anywhere. Usually find yourself working with some very smart people.

Cons

Politics are huge. More so then competitors I've worked at. It's obvious early on that promotion to and beyond Manager is all politics. Seen colleagues passed over because they were not politically aligned. Though every promotion metric was met or exceeded. Eventually it becomes "Up or Out". You have so many years to move up. Unspoken, but there. If your a seasoned professional I'd not recommend EY. Unless your a "salesman" and being political a personal strong point.
