How is the culture at EY, specifically the Real Estate Tax in the NYC office?
Also, is there a good variety of clients or is there primarily one large client that everyone ends up working on?

EY has been getting a lot of bad press lately, so if you are a female I would definitely think twice before considering EY.

In general, EY industry groups within the tax department have little to no opportunity for advancement above Manager, as there are many many males currently in those roles and EY will only promote if there is an office need.

likefunny

This is very much not true. I am a female and have never had an issue at EY and never heard of any of my friends having one either. One bad thing happened and now all of a sudden EY is labeled as being a bad place for Women. It’s just not true.

It is primarily a compliance and provision practice. Busy seasons are very busy. There are a lot of large clients, as well as medium and small companies.

While a good bunch of people; people either love it or hate it because of how busy the busy seasons are.

Brutal. Real estate tax is consistently one of the highest utilized groups in the firm.

You’ll either hate it or absolutely love it and it all depends on the teams/clients you get put on.

Have any of you taken "low bono" clients while working at a firm? I want to take on a low bono client or two but not sure who would get the money. This is a contract opportunity through a non profit so I'm assuming a 1099 will be issued. The per hour rate is significantly less than my billable rate. I would (obviously) like the money but my real objective is just getting experience/networking since I recently moved to a new state and don't have clients of my own.
