Budgeting dysfunction and culture wars
Pros: Good pay, Flexible work environment, opportunities for education
Cons: The way they fund projects that are not directly client revenue generating is based on a yearly budget cycle which is very inflexible. Leading to all sorts of waste, inefficiencies and political posturing each fiscal year. There is also a heavy bias to moving resources to lower cost offshore locations, which are not always managed well. Also, EY has decided to go full steam ahead into the culture wars, distracting from the mission of promoting based on qualifications and serving the client. Sure maybe some change was needed from the stoggy culture from a generation ago but they have gone full social justice warrior.
