Need some thoughts: Sr3 -Office transfer approved and starts in Sept but I haven’t got any work assign from the new office. I’m taking 4 weeks off before June 30 when my rolled vacay expires. 1. if EY will cut ppl out after June will I be on the list since no one knows me/my work ethics, no assignment at the new office and my utilization will be low after vacay. 2. Should I even consider looking to buy/rent in new city since most client will WFH til at least end of this year through next year?

So many variables. So hard to say.

If your transfer got approved, this means that you either have pretty strong reviews or they office has a big need but either way I wouldn’t worry about getting cut. EY has made clear that they’re not laying people off. They actually did a nice thing and froze all performance based firings until July so as not to throw people out on the street at a time when it’s likely impossible to find another job. Post June they’re just looking to begin the same process.

Also, I transferred last year. It’ll take a while to get your schedule settled in your new location. Don’t sweat your ARMS not bring updated.

Also, on the rent/buy - whats the location? I think the local market will impact this decision both because of EY’s reopening plan and the how the housing market looks there. I’d suggest you hold off as much as possible before making this decision

September is still 4 months away. Likely the local scheduler doesn’t even know you’re coming yet.
