Ernst & Young Consulting Department Reviews

Likes

It's a well established organisation in the industry. But there is no factor for me to like working at EY

Dislikes

1. Highly unorganised projects, unrealistic deadlines, and all time building work pressures (asking for leaves or even leaving early for personal work seems to be a big ask) 2. The managers on most of the projects are not concerned about providing support to team members leading to direction less output 3. Most of the time is spent on firefighting to understand the scope of work/way to deal with a particular client/to seek on the job support- which is a bare minimum expectation from the managers to provide it to employees, but is never fulfilled! 4. All the above factors lead to stagnant growth, and one will realise this soon enough that their time and effors are not worth given to EY...Read More

Big name that is easy to tell others without explaining much what it is.

Dislikes

Mediocre people in middle management making junior staff suffer at whims and fancies. They look the team members bad in front of top management so that they can shine and hide their mediocrity. It is a foreign MNC but, in reality boasting high standards of employee friendliness but, in reality, the policies that may help the employees are not effective on the ground but generate an effect entirely opposite to what thise polocies suggest. Like: policy says that employees are encouraged to work in different teams than their original core competency so that they can learn more and add value to their profiles as professionals but moving from one team to the other for the same reason is virtually impossible as the people incharge of that decision do not allow that, even if you are ready to quit the firm itself if not allowed to leave the current team....Read More

People are willing to collaborate on multiple assignments. Salary and bonus are good but health insurance could be wayy better.

Dislikes

Only profit matters, they’ll make you work till you beg for death. Work life balance doesn’t exist in their dictionary. No clear path forward to higher roles.

Likes

Just the brand name was good earlier but not anymore.

Dislikes

No work life balance and in fact exploitation culture. Unsaid stretching expectations both over weekdays and weekends and without any compensation. Even if you are working whole night you are expected to be in office at 9:30/10 am the other morning and this happens regularly. Too much politics, people who don't involve in politics or don't do buttering of managers don't get growth here. Management is just too biased. Very inhuman culture of first setting too high expectations from any resource and calling it competitive culture. A 3 yr old experience resource is expected to take care of the whole project. Don't give any team lunch or any fun activities....It solely depends on partner and EY doesn't care if your partner is not good. Even female employees are asked to work from office if there is any exceptional requirement and there is no one to ensure safety apart from just the security guard. Your manager just needs the work done. Taking leaves is almost a dream. They say you can take year end leaves but technical teams don't get those leaves too. It does not leave you with any time to give it to family. If you are deployed on client sides in different cities then you are supposed to come back on friday late night and reach to the client side on Monday morning be it any city in India ... You don't even get time to wash your clothes or eat properly because they don't reimburse laundry for younger resources and give very less money to get reimbursed for food. I was assigned budget of 400 rs per day by my Partner saying that the client doesn't allow more than this. It's a horrible place to be at. Everything written on linkedin in past few year about EY is infact 50% less .... It is more horrible than what is written there....Read More

Health insurance policy

Dislikes

The compensation structure lacks transparency and there is no job security as the hiring is contract-based. Additionally, employees are required to relocate to a new city with their family after completing each project, usually staying for a maximum of one year. The reimbursement for relocation expenses is very low and limited. The company tends to over-commit and charge high fees to the client, resulting in constant pressure to work long hours in order to justify these charges....Read More

Disgusting work culture. Partners at the top harass you constantly for no reason and take personal revenge on your appraisal. They speak in filty language and give bad words just so casually. Very stressful work culture.

Its all about team we are in EY. My team is overall good. Yet company culture is poor which gets inherited. Being consultant flexible working hours, hybrid mode again these depend on clients.

Dislikes

Poor salary, does not match with industry poor appraisal too, despite huge profits they don't pass on benefit to employees no outside salary benefits in the name of well being, they arrange virtual yoga, doctor counselling no gifts, or merchandises' which is basic thing earlier organization used to conduct parties and offsite, that is too curbed to cheap places once a year.

Promotions - nothing, unless you go to Bangalore office and become a PA to a senior manager 4. Hikes - 3% as per 2023

Dislikes

Work liye balance - you don't have. Medical attention- my health worsen due to workload and pressure. I highlighted it to upper management but they didn't take any action. Learning plateform is good but you don't get time to do the trainings Ultimately this can be improved if the leadership is ready to take appropriate steps to prioritise people over customers.
