EY sick days. People who work at EY, how does it work? Is the policy strict (doctors note etc.) or pretty laid back and people actually use them?

Agree with everyone. Ignore that other post of the person worried his senior took a sickie. In my experience, rarely ever are you negatively looked at for being sick. I’m with P1- if you are coughing and sneezing, I will send you home; we basically sit on top of each other at client site and I’m not risking my whole team going down with a cold

I am a PPEDD and we don’t get a metric on this for our people. It is tracked but not something they inform us of. So I would agree; laid back and I hope it remains that way. If you are sick we don’t want you in the office as much as you don’t want to be there either. Better to rest and recover then get everyone else sick. If it is a more major illness then I would say the firm is quite good at giving you the time you need to recover.

Agree on laid back but I think that if more than 5 days straight HR might get involved because that is when Short term disability could kick in

That's law not just ey policy

Hello Fishes,
What are your leave plans?
(Year end is nearing, most of the accounts must have or will move to Code Freeze period and some of the leaves will expire by year end).

1. No leave plans at all.
2. Utilise some part of leave.
3. Utilise all leaves for Vacation.
4. Utilise all leaves for Upskill/Reskill.

I'll start - How much do benefits factor into your job search and deciding on an offer? For me, the vacation is critical, and it reflects the extent of the agency's culture of trust.

No idea about team/culture/stability differences yet.

The non-work factors I'm debating are:
1. Cost-of-living (housing!). Could probably afford a nice ~$1.25M SFH in Seattle suburbs sooner than a fair $1.5-2M near Cupertino.
2. Public School quality. Unsure private will be affordable.
3. Weather/region: activities
