Pros

Training and education at Ernst and Young are the best in the industry. There is a good support system to help new hires find their fit with the company and have their questions answered. Training at the beginning of every position seems to be extensive and helpful. E&Y strongly encourages and supports (monetarily) the attainment of industry required certifications (i.e. the CPA certification) and continuing education. Ernst and Young also has a very solid benefit package, including a matched 401k, health insurance including vision insurance (dental is available for an extra cost). After two years, all staff are given the opportunity to direct lower-level staff. After 5 years, employees are eligible to apply for an overseas rotation if desired.

Cons

Extensive working hours. Although flexibility and work life balance is touted, in reality a newly hired staff experiences little flexibility unless they fight for it, which is generally not a good idea.

Pros

The experience you gain and the great people you get to work with. Use their training programs.

Cons

The management style of middle management. it's very demoralizing. The review process is terrible is unfair. They seem to focus on the negative. The round tables are not working. They need to find a better system.
