It's all relative
Pros: EY is an amazing workplace, but only for those who are committed to constantly learning. The Company fosters a setting where diversity is actually welcomed, and is an excellent work environment for women in comparison to many other highly structured corporate entities. It's a true meritocracy at higher levels of the organization (for the most part) so you're not burdened with the feeling that you're working under for people less "intelligent" or "experienced" that often exists at smaller tier firms. Good benefits packages as well.
Cons: Salary is not the best when you consider the stress you will put up with at times (internally and externally) or the amount of knowledge required to function at the executive level. It's a highly structured corporate environment when it comes to ranks and titles, which in turn leads to a politically charged environment at times. The firms emphasis on training and developing its people can often stray too far into "coddling" territory and failure to weed out under-performers can be a turn off to high-performers.
