Great Place to Start a Career
Pros: A massive global firm with thousands of opportunities for development 

In a much more client-facing role than others in consultancy at EY. Frequently working with some of the world's largest financial services firms. 

Great L&D structure and opportunities 

A clear pathway to becoming ACA and CISA qualified if you want

co-workers and managers all super friendly and helpful. Really invested in your development
Cons: A lot more Financial IT Audit than they let on originally

Really halfway between assurance and consultancy (at best)

It can be difficult to get involved with consultancy projects from September to February due to the audit busy season. 

Unlike other consultants, you study the CFAB (audit and finance focus) compared to the CIMA (management accountancy focus). However, both are really great graduate qualifications.
