EY reviews

1. Don't be fooled by the firm's "global image"; it is very much a Singaporean firm run by Singaporeans with your typical Singaporean work culture. Expect selfish people who will look after themselves first or blame you just to avoid any blame themselves. 2. Politics, favourtism are common. People will treat partners differently from how they treat associates (i.e. as inferior beings) 3. You will be expected to produce as much as you can while having as little resources as possible, such as budgeted time for jobs. 4. EY prides itself on its time-off-in-lieu system but depending on your schedule, you may not be able to clear all the time-off that you have accumulated. 4. In tax, expect inefficient, unintuitive processes which you are somehow supposed to be totally familiar with despite being a newcomer and which you are supposed to follow, just because "we've been doing it this way since 50 years ago". Very old-fashioned mindset prevalent, especially among management. 5. You will be treated as a worker more than a person. People prioritise their targets over you.

-EY Luxembourg could turn out a scam if you want to invest in your career. Many managers, senior managers are not certified, they are just promoted and in process of studying ACCA. -Trainings are so aweful, during the trainings people work on there laptops. Salaries are lower comparing to other big4. -Policies are not so constant, they change from time to time, concerning overtime and process of approval for example. - Sometimes you feel the upper management tries to go cheap and does christmas party in a garage, - Consueling and conselor things dont really function very efficiently, its all politics. - EY is a great place to work, but you sometimes work with senior managers who dont live the values of EY unfortunately.
