      Stay clear of working here. It's a trap

      Business Outlook

      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

      It depends where you are in the firm

      Pros

      With any large global organization, the people you work with locally will make or break your time spent at the company. At the EY Toronto office, it was quite a pleasant experience, with most people generally willing to help you out. The Partners and Senior Managers I worked with were kind, understanding, and willing to teach and mentor me. I really enjoyed my time with EY. EY moves relatively fast for its size in terms of adopting new technology. Their knowledge management system is top-notch. If there is an area you want greater understanding of (like emerging technologies) or if you need a template for use in your engagement, the internal systems in place are an amazing place to start. You can truly tap into the power of the firm's global network for your research.

      Cons

      Advisory is broken out into the Performance Improvement (PI) and Risk. Risk primarily performs audit support work (IT risk, or financial risk management) and other risk-related engagements (internal audit, FRM). Audit support work, much like audit work, gets mundane and repetitive really quick; not to mention the unforgiving long hours it can take during "busy seasons." If you are in Risk, there is little to no opportunity (although not impossible) to work on PI engagements as you go up the ladder (i.e. experienced Senior, Manager, and above). If you're in non-FRM Risk (i.e. ITRA and Internal Audit), I would encourage you to leave the firm, as there are much greener pastures elsewhere; even at the Senior Manager and Partner level.

      Poor salary No support from managers Office Enviroment is terrible - more life in a grave yard. No flexi time - although this is said to be a benefit of the firm EY culture not in Newcastle
