Pros

- International opportunities - Learning - good firsty job out of university. - if one is top performer, big EY has a quite a lot of opportunities within organisation

Cons

- Big 4 is still big 4, sometimes the job is too technical and big 4 needs to do jobs that nobody else within a clients organisation wants to do. - Low sallaries/ relativelly long working hours. -

No work-life balance

Pros

Ernst & Young is one of the top 4 accounting firms, so it's a good resume builder. I've had a lot of friends who were able to move onto great jobs because of their experience at E&Y. E&Y is also very big on training and spends a lot of time every year teaching its employees the concepts behind a lot of the work. They're also very supportive of test-taking like for the CPA.

Cons

There is no work-life balance. During busy season, I am here nearly 70 hrs or more a week. You are expected to come in at least one day of the weekend, if not both. I also feel like the work gets monotonous after awhile. Half of the time, I'm not using my brain. There is also a very big sense of hierarchy here.
