Company: EY
Date: 2020-10-02
Overall rating: 2/5
Employment status: current
Experience level: Junior

Long and irregular hours, no work life balance, promise of being valued but no actual weight
Pros: Global Brand Name is good and public perception is that you are a hard worker who can slog for hours
Cons: Underpaid in contrast to hours worked, no actual commitment to train staff as you don't report to any one so you are viewed as "any other resource".

You are expected to perform at least 3 ranks higher by yourself based on observation (e.g Assoc 1 shd be performing at around Sr 2 or Sr 3 level and above, while Sr 1 shd be performing at M1 and above) if you want a bonus between 2-4 months (and even if you could, the opportunity to do so doesn't always come by, as the firm always staffs as many consultants possible to charge more to the client) so you don't get the chance to shine even if you had the capacity to. Bonus across is 1.4mths standard (80% of people will get this).

Unless you are in audit taking your professional papers, in consulting, training is usually self sponsored or just udemy e-learning or e-learning. No actual sponsorship for training & dev of staff.
