The work never ends. Partners are home all the time, and all they do is ruminate in their thoughts and ideas, making everyone else miserable. They ask for data and spreadsheets and numbers and analysis all the time...and it's ALWAYS urgent...but they don't actually look at it until 4 days later. Most of them are empty nesters, and have absolutely nothing going on outside of work.

SM - I love the tech/business development mix in my role.
On the day to day, you’re almost as « independent » as a partner, but have none of the power / revenue / recognition.
And you’re on your own basically, no one thinks it’s their role to help you grow and manage your workload or check if you’re doing well.

Does EY really underpay?

Absolutely! Home grown and internal transfer get screwed on pay. External experienced hires get paid way more than others.

Love the work and sone of the folks I work with, hate everything else - pay, role, rest of the dumbass colleagues, organization culture, Sr. Management who've lost the plot and are clueless.

Two weeks ago I was pulled into a room and told by current employer that I was getting my $890.00 holiday pay out. Which would be taxed at 40 % because it was a gift. Today, never received it. Was told by the financial dept. that I had a warning therefore I wasn’t eligible. Called my boss. She called back said it was handled and I would indeed get it next week with my regular check. 30 minutes later…boss called back and says that HR did some digging and found that I’m not eligible. Who’s hiring?

Anyone else feel discourage ? I thought my interview went amazing and today I received the standard email rejection. I don’t know how many times I’ve seen those emails but this one hurt more than the others. I sat in my car and just cried. Hiding from my family, so they wouldn’t feel bad with me. Picked myself up, gave a few encouraging words to myself in the mirror and put my fake face on for my family. Can anyone else relate ?

So i have been fortunate that i have managed to go through my career without the need for a degree. I was lucky enough to have been hired by one of the worlds top consulting firms, worked with a whole lot of big clients and travelled a lot. It's gotten to the point where I am not even asked about the lack of a degree on my resume. Personally though, it bothers me. I have a whole bunch of certifications in my industry…but just no formal degree. (cont'd)
