Supervising Associate
"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."
