Can anyone provide some insight on EY’s FSO audit practice? Specifically, the WLB and the exit opportunities?

Do not do it. They will stick you in insurance.

WLB? Audit? Haha

funny

The exit opps will be related to the industry that your client serves.

WLB for BCM is a ridiculous amount of hours during busy season, more than most other sectors. WAM is overall less hours in a week, but you have rolling busy seasons all year long.

Currently in FSO WAM. I’d say it’s hit or miss depending on the client you end up on. Just pray you don’t end up in insurance.

I see a lot of people leave for fund accountant roles. Sounds boring but pay is very very good. Since we work with valuations I’ve seen people leave for valuation/analyst positions at PE or hedge fund shops (smaller shops, not the larger HR or PE shops).

I’ve seen people leave for FDD, valuations at big 4 or MM firm, FP&A.

It’s pretty similar. Only difference I see is fund accountant roles. WAM is literally the path to fund accounting

As a former EY Audit FSO Senior, my only advice - avoid it like the plague!
Happy to refer you to KPMG AAS though 😊

Hi, where or what types of companies should sophomores & juniors apply for next summer (2022) to recruit for IB the following summer (2023)? This summer BBs wrapped up SA IB recruitment, EBs even earlier, and a fair amount of my friends missed out big time.

Also, if a sophomore or junior doesn’t get a finance-related summer internship (I.e tech) and aims for an IB SA or FT position, is it harder to break in?

Appreciate any advice and insight, thank you.

Need advice: do you tell your manager that you’re unhappy or do you just leave?

I’m being taken advantage of with being thrown so much work and really don’t see my salary increasing to be in line with my coworkers doing similar work. I’m a consistent high performer - management reviews tell me that much.

My coworker did mention to the manager that they’re not being paid well for the work they do, and our manager took it personally and told them they’re ungrateful 🥲
