Independence means that when you work there you can't own any securities that EY audits. It's the same for all of the big 4 and a massive pain in the ass.
I took a huge cap hit when I joined EY, it's expensive in addition to being a pain if you have assets.
At least the nice thing is that EY does not audit anything from Vanguard or Fidelity, so lots of typical mutual funds are safe. No robo advisors though...

But yeah, if you don't own individual stocks, or mutual funds outside q tax advantaged account like a 401k or IRA it shouldn't be a big deal at all.
