Is working in Forensics & Integrity Services at EY a good career?

What are the possible career paths in future?

Forensics is a good career, and EY will put a strong brand name on your resume, so it’s a good way to get your foot in the door in a field that’s otherwise somewhat difficult to break into. But if I were you, I’d very much look at EY as a launch pad and not a career. Once you’ve been at EY for a year or two, you can use that experience to jump to forensics at another firm where you’re likely to make substantially more money and probably work on more interesting/fulfilling projects

No, it’s not. I would avoid.

Why? Could you elaborate more 😯

Currently a Solutions Consultant at Pegasystems.

I am interviewing at and considering making a jump to
Oracle as a Specialist Solutions Consultant.

The reason for my move is currently at Pega SCs are treated more as AEs or Account Managers. The role at Oracle would be more of a true SC position. I also feel that Oracle will look BETTER on a resume and someone as young as me would have BETTER programs in place to train me and give me the foundation needed to be a successful SC.

Thoughts?

For those of you who got out at 10, do you wish that you rode it out to 20? I’m at a crossroad and I’m not sure what to do.

Obviously there are draws to both. I’m an officer for what it’s worth so I can realistically retire at O-5, MAYBE O-6.

Curious if anyone else is or has been in the same boat. I started as an assistant at an entertainment law firm prior to passing the bar. Upon passing, the partner told me they would hire an assistant for me since I now became an associate. That was 1.5 years ago and I am still in the limbo of juggling my own workload + doing assistant roles for my supervisors. I have also had no increase in pay, which is a huge deal for me. Is this normal in the entertainment world? Any suggestions?
