EY reviews

For me the best reason to work at Ernst & Young were the people. The firm is young, and filled with people that are eager to learn and develop their careers. The firm does a great job in educating you to be prepared for your career, they put a huge focus on this. Additionally you will progress faster at a public accounting firm like E&Y than you would in an industry position - you will work hard to get there, but you will get there much faster. Additionally there are so many leadership positions that you can sink your teeth into by simply volunteering. It is a great place to develop leadership, teamwork, and education on accounting.

Ernst & Young provides accounting professionals witha great place to start their career, whether you plan to stay for many years or only a couple of years, it is a great resource to have on a resume. EY promotes flexibility at work and really provides flexibility to their employees. The pay is great in comparison to other peers in the same field and they provide the opportunity for accounting professionals to complete their 150 credits with a Leave of Absence in order to become eligible to sit for the CPA examination. There is also a direct billing relationship with two CPA prep courses to allow employees to be completely prepared for the exam. If you pass within a certain time frame of two years, a bonus is available to you. There are so many EY locations throughout the world, that there are plenty of opportunities to work close to home or to even take advantage of their Global Exchange program that is available to their high performing audit professionals. EY really cares about all levels of their employees and is continuously providing us with opportunities to learn and grow professionally and personally. Another great thing about the firm is that you are surrounded by brilliant professionals. I have really come to recognize that EY only hires people who have the necessary knowledge and also who have great attitudes. I have really enjoyed all of the teams that I have worked with and have been provided the opportunity to network with some great resources. The team environment is very rewarding. Another aspect of networking is being able to have one on one with the CEOs and CFOs and other important roles in the client sector. These resources can prove to be invaluable. The opportunities for advancement with the firm are unbelievable, whether you chose to stay in the audit sector or move on to other sectors such as transaction advisory services, fraud risk services, tax services, or even human resources. EY rewards their people and keeps us satisfied. I am very proud to say that I work for EY and I am also very confident that EY will prepare me for any future endeavors outside of the firm that I may chose to take on.
