🙋‍♀️ My personal experience at EY as a woman was crappy. I'm sure it is different in various practices, but my group never promoted women beyond SCs. They cover their ass by hiring new female BA, C, SC, but the chance of going M and above was zero for girls. When I left my group (as an SC on the M track which wouldn't eventually get promoted), I was the last female of that boys club who left. I was a super high performer female who always had to go the extra miles to be seen, while the leadership always took it very easy on male peers. The rule of "cant do early promotion" was never applied to males. I saw how comfortably male colleagues took the credit of work, and got assigned to fun and critical roles. Male SCs got easily M after 2 years, and male Ms got SM after 3 years. This would never happened for any of the females that I knew. Feedback from my very biased male Counselor was "great job. this is not the best report, but you are trying."!!! what an asshole.
I finally moved to Deloitte and I am much happier and appreciated. there are more female leaders, though the "extra mile" struggle is still existence in here. I will never get back to EY. Felt used there.

I used to work at EY in Audit and had a very equitable experience. That was also in California though and may have been working with more inclusive leaders (even if most partners were still men)

No. It’s not a culture for sure. But I died laughing reading this. Someone copied the training from 1960. F here if it matters, EY is actually good company for women. Will highly recommend.

It depends on lot of factors and some people still have that mentality. Cannot help. But in general org culture is not like that for sure. It’s media people 🙄 but that being said, if a M or F come to me with issues like this I will never dismiss them.

When I worked at EY. A partner told me I should refrain from wearing outfits that would attract the male gaze. Now at Deloitte I’ve been told similar things. Sexism is everywhere. And yes I wear professional clothing! It’s just I have a curvaceous figure... thing Meg the Stallion in a size 4.

Comes down to this...speak up and protect yourself if you feel uncomfortable. You WONT get fired for expressing concern. This could of happen in 1950 but hard to believe this happens today.

Every Big4 needs females in leadership roles not just EY.

OMG, this totally changed my impression of EY! Would definitely stay away even though I’m M.

I don’t think this is EY or Deloitte specific. Things like this can happen with anyone, anywhere. We shouldn’t just have trainings targeted to genders. The training should be all inclusive specifically it is for leaders. Shouldn’t be “how to become a strong female leader” it should “How to become a STRONG and FAIR LEADER"

Taken out of context - this has to be from a training about Inter sectionalism and gender fluidity

Otherwise god rest our sorry souls, we’re all about to get railed with so many trainings that by the end of this we’ll all be gender less drones. Thanks boomers, for f-ing everything up again

Typical - blame “parents” for everything

Definitely an isolated thing. I haven’t experienced this internally at EY, but in general, working in a corporate environment and various clients, sexism is not uncommon
