Company: EY
Date: 2011-08-09
Overall rating: 4/5
Employment status: current

Opportunity for exposure is there, but drawn out review process seems to yield low compensation.
Pros: Inclusive working environment in terms of race and gender. People in the firm seem to really care about you as a person, but whether they are in a position to foster change based on your feedback is another story.  Overall if your a young professional in it for the long term networking and client experience aspects, then its not a bad place at all to start your career.
Cons: Seems to be a better place for a young professional to start a career then to have a career. Pay is not proportionate to how much effect you put into the firm. The review process seems to actually spain the entire year not just a month or two leading up to FYE.  Client interaction is a big plus as you build your personal brand, but it is a game of cat and mouse depending on your group to get the real face time the firm is "known" for.
