Nothing.
Work-life balance: There is none. Additionally, get ready to have your private space invaded. Skill development: None to offer whatsoever. Redundant work with close to nothing in terms of improvement. Salary: Pays well. But not enough and nothing is enough to completely dismantle your work-life balance and your private life as well.Company culture: Worst. Plagued with internal politics and favouritism. Kolkata branch especially has deep-rooted nepotism so do make friends with the ones who have familiar connections with the top brass (If you're an unfortunate employee in the Kolkata branch). Job security: Officially EY doesn't believe in the hire-and-fire culture as communicated quite vocally by the HRs, but unofficially and as the truth is about them, if you get on the wrong footing with the seniors, they will make it a personal mission to see you're thrown out of the company. Promotions: Be on the good books of the nepo colleagues and they will have a good word for you with the higher management (their relatives) and viola! You have been promoted! Or, get on their bad books and see yourself getting thrown out the next year or so. Yes, work isn't a qualifying metric for promotions, sadly. Work satisfaction: If you are up for redundant work and looking for a place to exclusively retire yourself having done all the improvements and upskilling that you could in your entire career and finally said to yourself it's time to hang up the boots but still need a moderate source of income, then this is the right place for you to be and you'd be satisfied by how stagnant and redundant the work here is. A great and stable close-to-retirement work-life which competes with the likes of working at TCS....Read More

Culture was brilliant.
Managers don't bother about their sub ordinates, neither are interested to have any healthy conversations. Crapy salary hike, no promotion, no skill upliftment.

The manager was very supportive and the work life balance was good.
The unnecessary pressure to work from office and the unsupportive rude behaviour of the HR. There was nothing given above and beyond the salary not even box of sweets on small occasions. All the team outings and activities were self sponsored.

Workplace harassment and workplace discrimination is rampant. Indian managers in US at this company are bullies and bring their countries’s interstate bias to the US. Very pathetic personalities. They create social class bias within people and trigger everyone’s emotions and impact everyone’s mental health. Only knowledge they have is books and degrees and no human knowledge. They are insecure and respect hungry....Read More

Awesome company to work. But try to stay away from politics. Some people are easily getting promotion due to close connection with the reporting manager

Looks good on CV Company environment & culture looks ideal during Inductions Office at prime locations
Really bad counsellors that try to make you scapegoats when you're not butliking and they've target to fire people. They'll make your life hell, like if you're offline for 45mins from Teams for lunch, they'll call you, scold you in front of their bosses When I complaint to Exit HR, she said she cannot note it as exit reason, really wow Cannot change counsellors without their approvals which defeats the purpose of having that option Managers know everyone's contributions but will only support their favourites No professionalism No software licenses for project work(I've to use trial versions using different accounts after it expires), No standard templates for documentation or project management Unnecessary trainings pops up every now & then, sometimes same trainings with revised syllabus that you've to pass every quarter with 80% and un-skippable videos Below average hike, they told everyone gets full variable pay but that's only for favourites You'll see most bad behaviour - low skill one's promoted & defended by Seniors. They must have some off-office understandings going on. First I applied for early release which they denied & just before a week got email-approvals on my early request of early release. so called supportive culture gives you a week to find another job...Read More

Everything is negative here, boot-licking culture. Client is always right even they say that a man have 5 legs, EY upper management will agree on that. No support for their employees.

My manager skills were unmatched with any other staff at EY. It always feels like home working with him.
That I am not working anymore with EY just because of my quick decision making. I regret that I left the organization and now there is no coming back.

Company culture is good. Good work life balance.
Toxic superiors ( not generalising), doing your own work doesn't count at the time of performance rating. Focusing on socialising rather than client management.

Nothing.
Very un-structured org. No defined processes. One is made to take up lot of admin work on subjects that they have never done before which deviates from their main KPI. Hence, job satisfaction is zero.
Work policy: Coz I am in Sales, mostly expected to visit client office. If not, then go to EY office. We can opt according to our convenience on frequency.

The environment is stressed. The work will disturb your sleep. I would recommend it only to healthy people.

Their regional discrimination among the team members while offering work(loads) and while offering rewards and promotions for the same(nothing). I was in the Hitrust team and was reporting to now manager then senior consultant and senior manager, was pathetic in the behaviour, use to talk always in a bad way and senior manager always asked to stretch work hours which we always end up doing because we all not love but need the job and never gave feedbacks, during the time of promotions she never came back and told why I was not being promoted or when were the occasions when she was told my work was not up to the mark- never but yet 6 months experience 8 months experienced guys get promoted who never ever worked on end to end projects....Read More

Good hikes and bonus with changes of working on upcoming and trending technologies, which again would depend on the kind of project you are alloted with. Flexible working is a plus.
Poor work-life balance, toxic managers, tight deadlines.

In Tech Consulting the management is not bothered until you keep clients happy. You enjoy a freedom and flexibility to work as per client team. You won't be micromanaged from EY.
Hikes are less, even if your feedback was nice. It's like everyone gets the same hike, irrespective of the individual performances.
