I'd stay at least a couple of years to make your big 4 line item on the resume worthwhile.

It's never too soon to start looking for your next job.

Job hunting takes time, and you'll probably be at EY for 9-10 months before you start somewhere else. That's long enough to have a few accomplishments to list under "EY 2017-2018" on your resume.

Leaving a job after less than a year or two is only a big deal if it becomes a pattern.

Deloitte question. I have always gotten a raise each year, the only question I ask is how much of a raise do I get. But I’m hearing from former Deloitte folks, it is naive to expect annual raises each year however small/big they are? And how does this play in Deloitte consulting vs advisory? Do one tend to withhold annual raises in base salary over the other, or is this just a deloitte culture thing? Looking at exit opportunities all over. So lmk! I’d Rather get a small raise than none at all.
