EY is the epitome of the saying “bite off more than you can chew” and we will see again how their overly ambitious decisions will impact the employees (hopefully i’m gone by then)

Every top 25 firm is like this. Mine somehow thought we’d able to get 15% revenue increase for FY 2024 without any major acquisitions. Now top brass is pissed it hasn’t happening.

Pretty sure our C Suite just SALYed it and made the growth leaders back into it so the numbers work.

I don’t know how they could have used actual data and analysis to get to 15% growth.

Are they planning a new way to separate audit and tax that costs another $500M?

They will never care about you, just use you as much as you let them. Many people work to their breaking point. Be smart and set boundaries, then bounce as soon as it's not benefiting you. Get a few years if you can and then leave.

Exactly... so why work harder than you need to? Do the least amount of work for the most amount of benefits. Big 4 is only good for getting the resume boost and then it's time to go.

I mean paying larger amounts of money to staff and seniors hoping that it creates more business is a lot like vision 2020 or project Everest. When the overall economies retracting and you have the scandal in Australia makes me think this huge pay increase just like the other two initiatives will backfire and cost more than who it’s gonna help.

Oh, if OP is targeting about revenue targets then that makes sense. But, there’s the ambitious goal and then the revised realistic target. Not hitting the ambitious goal is typical. But not hitting the revised is where it impacts the employees (similar to this past year).

It’s a stretch goal. But agree generally. It’s all politics though. Who knows what the underlying reasons are for different decisions at any B4.

I was listening to a Mufti Menk lecture yesterday on this topic. Surah Nashra is also about burdens we bear. Within this Surah,Allah SWT speaks about how He is the one that granted the cure, purity, and strength after the backs were about to break. Allah SWT takes us to this point to refine us. We never know our capabilities until we are tested and challenged. This is when we realize we can do it and we can get through it 🫶🏻! IA you got this 🫶🏻!
