EY is like two ply toilet paper. PWC is one ply office toilet paper where you essentially wipe with your finger :)

The EY farewell cakes are better. Easier to make puns with EY. Typing EY is quicker than PWC. “Unlimited (Aka limited) vacation.” PWC pays for your phones. That’s about it

You have to sell all your stock if you own any EY audit client shares regardless of service line. That killed it for me.

Yup. EY had the most aggressive independence policy (at least with stock). If EY does business with a company it doesn’t matter if you’re not on the audit or not, you can’t invest.

For me I think one firm(EY) is more laid back than other. Everything else is similar but PwC has more updated technology.

In my market they definitely do NOT

Pwc has better work product, technology and training. Additionally the people are more professional.

I’ve seen a lot of incompetence at ey at the manager and senior manager level. Basic tax knowledge a first year would know anywhere else, a manager at ey will not know. This ends up hurting staff and senior development

I second this.

PWC is competent. EY can't audit cash right.

The colour red

EY has higher utilization rates for Tax - I left recently and can attest that the rates we have at PwC are lower, especially for Managers and above.

Yup. That was pretty much my experience. Worked a ton and wasted time on countless admin hours. Agree with you on their provision procedures. PwC is much more in tune with making sure we only document what we need to (from a risk perspective). Same goes for things like gift tax return procedures…EY just does way too much sometimes and it causes teams to blow budgets.

Ok so. I have been on this journey for almost a year now to try and 'get to know and love myself' and I'm not there yet. I separated from my ex in March of 2020 and divorce was finalized in October 2020. I'm still sad, lost, angry etc. I'm trying/tried therapy, meditation, ayurveda, self help videos, books, but I'm not happy with myself and I don't think I know myself. I want to be happy alone before I meet anyone new. Any tips or advice on how I can effectively accomplish this? Thank you!

I’ve been reading more about how there’s a difference between how men socialize and how women socialize at work. There’s a school of thought that says that men are “friends” outside of work with their coworkers so they are more likely to lift each other at work. Women however are more likely to separate their work friends and their social friends. I think I fall in this group. Cont in comment
