Good culture but no lunch money 🤷🏼‍♀️

We work fewer hours than Deloitte

Great culture and work life balance

But I repeat: EY doesn't pay for lunch or snacks when traveling.

Ratings are primarily tied to getting your name as "pursuit lead" (only one name can go in there). SMs start collaborating less because they're afraid of people "stealing" their opportunities. Too many SMs on key accounts fighting for limited pool of executive relationships. Multiple PPEDs pushing their own agenda on your campaigns or POV.

Just isn't fun any more and then you ask yourself "Do I want to endure this for the next 5 years to make partner?"

Hope your interview goes well. As with any of the Big 4 there are pros and cons, but I really enjoy the culture - 95% of folks very helpful & accommodating.

I’m not really sure what Deloitte does, but I know EY is leading the charge in building a better working world... be part of the change

Great feedback - thanks, y’all!

Ey has a good culture but is a weak ass consulting firm unless you go to TAS which is really good. But their advisory is crap and their project line is mainly table scraps that D ACN or PWC don’t want

like

I think that is the story for SM/D everywhere.

Can't wait to get your insight post interview/offer!!

Homegrown partners are really great and mentoring. Con is that when ITA has a bigger stick on a project, it feels like a start-up due to the fact that the ITA practices are still growing.

Great place to work up until senior manager. Then it goes all downhill...

Why is that SM1?

SAP 1, Aw shame. If that’s the biggest concern I guess the rest is pretty good.

@SM1 - Have similar stories from SMs at D as well. Sucks

Says the ubiquitous A> asshole A1 with head in an orifice listening to digestive tract noises. Undeserved arrogance personified - and yes, based on personal experience.

@ A1 - Would agree for the most part... if we win against D or PwC, it’s usually due to the partner’s relationship with client

So I had been working as medical interpreter up to the early part of this year. Today, during an interview, the Director with whom I was interviewing genuinely urged me to consider pursuing a career as a PA or even attempt to go to medical school. I had considered it in passing before but today was about the third or fourth time that someone had earnestly nudged me in that direction. Has anyone here made such a career pivot before? I love working in healthcare, there’s nothing like it.

It’s hard to be motivated when rounds of layoffs happen and you see all your friends leave. But one thing that’s gotten me through all of this is working out.

Whatever you’re doing, wherever you are: get up and move even if you don’t finish or end up going on a walk. Pls take care of yourself❤️

M/SM and above, why do you label a meeting as “touch point” or ask if you can have a “quick chat” when it’s something serious? Millennials like us always assume we’re about to get fired - I actually have been laid off in a meeting with that title. But at my new job, my boss asked for a “quick chat” to literally ask me to change the title of a meeting and then chat about christmas. Now that I’m in management, I want to understand it better.
