"I have worked for EY for the last three years. A professional services environment offers many learning and challenging opportunities to grow and become an experienced professional. EY has an excellent reputation and brand, and opens doors anywhere I go. On the flip side, it is a very large and disorganized firm. The technology is almost archaic and often impedes productivity, as opposed to supporting it. Measurements and reporting takes up a significant amount of time on a regular basis."

"Decent consulting company. It really is a matter of what you make of it, both the role you're hired for and the team, whether that's as a manager or as an individual contributer. Company isn't as competitive as it could be with other consulting companies, so I think that reflects their business model."

"Great place to build connections, learn about a variety of industries and participate on different projects that will help build your individual knowledge in your respective field as well as introduce you to new areas that you may find exciting. The negatives include lower than average pay, poor tech support, and being a jack of all trades rather than obtaining expert knowledge in one or two areas."
