Pros

Great place out of college to learn and get experience. Great on resume. Opportunities to travel. Also you tend to work closely with industry people such as controllers, CFO's at a much earlier time than if you just took a normal job as a staff accountant.

Cons

Hours are killer. If you do not know how to say no they will bury you in work. Alot of overtime and travel. Weekend work. Place has some pretty depressing people working for it. Alot of partners would be tucking their kids in at night over the phone and explaining why they couldn't be home. Pretty depressing when the higherups are even miserable.

Pros

The culture is people focused and great emphasis in placed on reinforcing the value of the people as an asset to organizational success. To this end, the firm provides an excellent benefits package, training and development opportunities and a "flexibility" benefit that makes work/life balance very attainable. EY prides itself on high ethical standards and delivers on that commitment.

Cons

Highly matrixed, disorganized structure. Lack of efficiency. Lots of red tape, making it difficult to accomplish the simplest of tasks without proper documentation. Poor or fragmented communication practices. Despite quality being one of the critical success factors, the actual quality of work outside of the audit function often leaves a lot to be desired.
