Any advice on choosing between PwC and EY? I know EY has the faster promotional path but is that a big reason to pick it? Are the benefits mostly the same? Starting as an intern!

Not sure about promotion track I was not slowed down at either. EY’s teaming culture is what attracted me. If you are a loan wolf type of person would say PwC would be a good fit. If you prefer to bring the best solution to your clients and not have as much pressure on individual metrics then EY is better. That being said there are people and clients for both cultures.

Also my statement is a broad perspective there are some types and opportunities in both to act this way.

PwC puts more emphasis on you being an actual expert in what you are doing before you get promoted. Yeah the promotion track is faster at EY but the pay of a senior at EY will match the pay of an 3rd year associate at pwc. Pwc does it because it will keep you around an extra year and the longer you stay the more likely you will stay for life. Who cares about title. Just go with your gut.

You spend a lot of time at work. The work is mostly the same. Choose the firm with the people you enjoyed talking with more.

Major benefits will be similar. PwC has Student Loan paydown. Other benefits I assume are similar: medical, dental, vision, pay for phone plan (you pay for device but get an amazing discount), pays for TSA PRechrck/ global entry, etc

Just choose the people you like more. If their client bases are substantially different then choose based off of that

OP is going to be an intern. There is no way they for them to know which will have the ties that can benefit their career. I know that’s what all the recruiters say but chances of working with anyone that is recruiting you are minimal

Depends on offices and having been at both in NYC, PwC has much better benefits and perks while EY has much better people.

Judging by some of the things I’ve seen on here, the comp seems to be better at PwC. That being said, every firm is going to be market and team dependent. Very hard to make any real generalizations about on firm vs another. Quality of people is largely the same too, which comes when half the time they’re all recruiting the same people

Pwc. Better tech, more public/interesting client. Benefits is about the same. Ppl/culture depends on your project . I had bad experiences at EY. But most of my friends performed better in Pwc n Deloitte

They are posts here about people who left PwC to join EY and came back after a couple months. There are also posts stating that the technology at PwC is much better!

PwC you get the July 4th and Christmas off. But agree you should join whichever you have the strongest connection

Ey has the same. The whole week off during both holidays
