Great People, Great Benefits
Pros: The people are supportive and amazing coworkers - the relationships formed here live on forever. I found excellent counselors, and mentors. The work environment is intense and fast tracked, and allows exposure to a lot of different industries. Being in an industry infamous for its bad hours, EY far outshines the rest in terms of making work bearable - even fun!
The compensation is alright - but the perks are great! Truly enjoyed the health & fitness benefits in particular.
Cons: Work - life balance suffers a lot in this equation, especially during "busy season" (early January to late March). You are expected to stay late (past 10 PM sometimes) and come in early for weeks in a row, and depending on your client, the work weeks can be 7-day weeks. But this is typical of the industry, and the team environment at EY is definitely on the better end of the spectrum, and makes it easier to work these hours.
