Analytics at EY
Pros: EY in general is a good place to work. It highly depends on the Practice/Team that you are a part of and the Partner with whom you work. Focus is on selling and being an entrepreneur, at least that what they will sell to employees. Work life balance also depends on the location and the practice that you belong to.
Cons: Highly bureaucratic and political. There are teams within teams and the teams are highly secretive of the work they do. Evaluation of people is highly subjective and perception based and there is no set process. One who has the leader in their pockets, wins in the end. Attrition levels are highly skewed towards the people who are Senior consultant and below. Legacy people hardly quit once settled in to their comfort zones. Growth and compensation are highly stagnant and the process is very opaque. Compensation is well below market bechmarks in Analytics. As an organization, EY is in my opinion confused about what they want to do when it comes to analytics. Product? Service? combination of both? Dont know yet, still figuring out. Everyone needs to sell, sell something. There is no skill based role.
