EY reviews

As the organisation has grown, it has become far too bureaucratic. Decisions are made based on 'systems and processes' rather than gut feel. It is not a particulary exciting or dynamic workplace. There is little actual respect for work-life balance. The phrase is used a lot by senior management, but it is more parroting it than meaning it. You do well at Ernst & Young only if you are a hihgly self driven person and do not need constant encouragement or support.

Generally salaries and work benefits are on the low side.Employees do not generally have an idea of how the firm has done financially and how this translates to their sallaries. Employees are generally not aware what standards are used for compensation and how they are arived at ,thus employees in the US could be earning 100 times more than employees in Africa but revenues created may not necessarilly be 100 times more than those created in Africa.
