Cons: EY is an extremely large company. Although each group operates almost like a separate business, they’re still beholden to arbitrary revenue and hiring goals set by firm leadership. As such, there’s always a chance that individuals can get downsized without advanced notice and without cause because a team is having a bad year. This is especially true with the consulting practices.
