EY Kenya firm: not living up to global code of conduct
Pros: Lack of talent means you are literally thrown in the deep end. You also get exposed to lots of regional opportunities.
Cons: No real leadership from the partnership and there is in-fighting between the different departments. 

Lack of a professional finance team has resulted in working capital issues that results in often salaries being missed and paid extremely late. 

Lack of a professional HR team has resulted in poor talent acquisition and lack of talent development, especially in Advisory. As a result, staff do not know the basics of engagement delivery.

Seen as a 'small' audit firm by the market, not recognised for Advisory capability.
