I was wondering why I didn’t see many farewell mails after April 18. Well, it looks like we don’t have anyone to quit. We now have more PMMDs than experienced seniors. Is this your situation as well? It looks like no amount of money will keep the staff from quitting.

What the pay band for a TD&E Senior at EY?

My SO got a job on the West coast and my company has been super adamant about people doing at least hybrid at some point (despite saying there’s not enough space for everyone lol).
