You spend more time at work than anywhere - be happy with where you work like I am!
Pros: Ernst & Young is a place that truly allows people to be who they are.  They not only talk the talk about inclusiveness, but they walk the walk.  I've been given access to senior executives at the firm as a staff, and opportunities to represent the firm and travel.  As a staff person I've been asked to participate with non-profits that the firm sponsors which allows me to give back to my community.  The work is generally interesting and always changing, and there's always someone to support you and your efforts.  I believe that there's nothing I can't do at the firm if I really wanted to.  You can't say that about many jobs.
Cons: Sometimes the hours are long but there are downsides to every job, and it's not any worse than any other firm in our business.  Honestly, I'm hard pressed to think of downsides to working at Ernst and Young.  I truly love what I do and can see myself working at the firm for the rest of my career.
