Cons

EY always talks about saving money and cannot offer raises. Yet they will have double digit growth in income with bonuses going to Directors and such. You will see jobs posted for hiring but they are outsourcing all of their IT functions to lower pay areas offshore or cities that give EY huge tax breaks. They have no problem moving operations to anywhere if given a deal. If you are in IT do not work here. They are going through another round of layoffs with no rhyme nor reason. Offshore work procedures that companies did in the early 2000s yet brought back to the US. EY is about 10 years behind the trend.

Advice to Management

Do not say you need to save money when you have double digit growth and handing out bonuses. Especially don't lay off people when you are communicating this.
