I left EY after 7 years to join CFO Services at A&M and couldn’t be happier I made the jump. In fact I regret not making the jump sooner. CPI is great. 4 behavioral interviews each 45min long with different interviewers.

CPI doesn’t have a case study interview ?

A&M in general have a long interview process. Your recruiter should tell you the stages.

I think CPI is a good department, then again I don’t think any department is specifically “bad” compared to Big 4 in general.

I’m not in CPI, sorry.
