EY Reviews

Cons

None that I could identify

Cons

Salary is reflective of being benchmarked against Big Four. Still a bit low for the level you're working at. Not enough EAs to cover absences so can be stretched too far over too long a period sometimes but they are proactively recruiting to improve this.

Cons

It is consulting, so your experience can depend on what client/managers you get on specific projects.

Cons

lack of technology, workload can be heavy, management of staff turnover could be managed better

Cons

Pay
Teams are too large
Hot Desk
Pay

Cons

They don't pay as well as they should.

Occasionally, I still have nightmares about my time in EY FS. I avoid certain pubs, and even walking down certain streets after work in the evening in case I meet the person who bullied me, or any of the people who supported and protected him.
I worked in FS Marketing for 10 months. In that time, I got wonderful feedback from partners across the business. I was well liked by my colleagues, many of whom I keep in touch with, and I broke a number of records in terms of our marketing metrics.
Despite this, I had a manager who made my life miserable. Mountains were made out of molehills in order for him to justify it. An overtly sexist, racist and homophobic man, he seemed to hate it thatin a short time I had developed strong working relationships with people who were more senior than him. He hated that I called him out for saying wildly inappropriate things.
And he took his revenge when he got the chance, choosing moments when I was experiencing family tragedies to apply added pressure, to put his boot on my neck.
His second-in-command, a mediocre yes-woman repeatedly backed him up, and the HR department repeatedly pointed out that he’d been working there longer than me and essentially made me feel like I was just causing trouble. Two very senior partners completely ignored me when I reached out to them after I left the company to highlight the behaviour.
Three of my colleagues resigned within a few weeks of me, reflecting the horrendous atmosphere in the team. I quietly hoped the management would see this for what it was and take action accordingly. And they did – this man was promoted… It appears to me that bullying isn’t just tolerated within EY FS Marketing, it’s tacitly supported.
It’s been more than six months since I left. I’ve spent hours in therapy talking about this man, and how the company supported him. I’m in a much better place now, but even still I just get a horrible feeling in my stomach even thinking about that place.

Cons

Salaries are not competitive enough

Cons

None that come to mind at this point

Very political - Old school processes - Too many bosses - Not very fair atmosphere, some staff, at the same level, have more - clear- privileges than others.
