Same benefits package as PwC. Healthcare is pretty ‘bad’, even the low deductible plan has a $1200 individual deductible and costs ~$100 a paycheck. Most people just use the high deductible plan which is $30 a paycheck, comes with a $3750 deductible, but does have the added benefit of $700 HSA contribution from the firm.
Retirement is 3-5% from the firm depending on level + up to 1.5% additional if you contribute 6% to 401k. Gradually vests over 5 years.
All the other perks such as gym membership while traveling and various travel discounts are pretty industry standard but shouldn’t be significant enough to materially affect a job decision.

ACN are asking very targeted detailed questions about comp, benefits, target schools. I’ve been very helpful but I’m starting to think this may not be “on the level”.

Hey I have an internship offer from them and I’m trying gauge their benefits vs the other firms. The S& recruiters have been less than forthcoming about some of the benefit details. Not sure what you mean by target schools.

Suggest that if this is an interested job seeker you download Glassdoor, network via LinkedIn with S& staff / recruiters and perhaps read vault for details.

I was approached to work in EY Melbourne. I was promised for a visa sponsorship. I have several questions:
- What is the work culture there? Is it fast paced or a bit relaxed?
- What’s the salary range for experienced consultant?
- Do they have a health insurance?

My firm typically does insurance defense, but we take plaintiffs cases here and there. Is it typical that work done by associates on contingency cases isn’t counted toward their billable hour requirements unless and until we receive our fee on the case? This is my first experience with this, but it’s hard for me to reach my hours as is, without spending time on non billable cases like this with no assurance that I’ll see billable credit at the end.
