Work life balance in PCS has been pretty awful the last few years with all the COVID filing deadline extensions and frequent changes. Feels like the busy seasons have been getting longer

I’m in EY PCS in a west coast office. I actually really like my teams. Culture is a good fit for me. Outside of busy season, work life balance is good. I usually work 40 hour weeks outside busy season. During fall busy season, it gets to be a grind and there are usually at least two weeks that I truly hate my life and question all my life choices. We use Sureprep and CCH mostly. I have a couple returns in OIT and Gosystems. Mercury sucks in PCS because we tend to have a higher volume of engagements. However, we’re using a special team now to do all of our admin for us so we don’t have to suffer through this process for every engagement anymore. I work mainly for two partners and I like both. I can’t speak for upper management. I do know that certain offices sounded a bit toxic a year or two back. That is not my experience in my office though. Hope this helps!

It’s hard to trust the partners/leadership when they want us to return to office as being better when we increase offshoring? Also, the pressure on billable hours when all that really matters is how much our fixed labor costs vs. how much we can bill (which is usually fixed fee or at least a range) and the fixed labor costs of offshoring is significantly cheaper so the hours don’t matter. Am I mistaken by this viewpoint?
