Pros

Good reputation, good clients, interesting work, opportunities for advancement and promotion, reasonable salary. I have been with E&Y for 5 years and have been very satisfied with the opportunities to get ahead. Good work is rewarded and individuals who go the extra mile are recognised. The area-based structure helps to facilitate knowledge sharing and effective working relationships across borders. Secondments and international postings are also available.

Cons

Within smaller teams some people are sometimes allowed to dominate the team. With certain personalities this becomes a problem. I have worked in two teams (in different countries) where a particular person has been allowed to terrorise the team. This, however, is not a usual problem and will only really arise where there are small teams such as in transfer pricing or the more specialised service areas.

Pros

It is a global company with great possibilities to work in other couintries. It is also transparant how promotions and salary increases work. The offices are well kept and the HR department is making all sorts of activities in order to inspire team building. We have good deals for car leasing making it possible to buy or lease cars, what ever suits you better.

Cons

The down side of working at E&Y is that the hours can be challenging and there is no compensation for putting in these extra hours. It is also less paid than competing firms such as KPMG.
