"The culture of doing the right thing and caring about our clients and our people is second to none. As a client serving professional, I have the opportunity to see the culture at a wide range of other companies through my client interactions. There is no place I would prefer to be."
Employees say: "Above all else, the genuine care that my mentors and direct supervisors have shown (and continue to demonstrate) me across my various responsibilities makes me feel valued and celebrated for who I am, supported when times are tough (either at work or at home), and confident that this is, and hopefully always will be, the best place I could ever consider working. Coupling this experience with an environment committed to teaming and collaborating and winning means that the day-to-day experience I have feeds my personal and professional purpose and inspires me to achieve a more selfless approach toward enabling a 'greater good' for the organization and its people."
Employees say:
"EY is one of the best companies for family leave. They encourage parents to take time to bond with their new family members and find ways to help employees grow their family. The support we receive is definitely better than the majority of companies in the US."
Employees say:
"Benefits and the ability to try different things both within service lines and across them. EY offers opportunities to its employees that are likely hard to come by in other places, and is a great place to develop professionally in the business world."
Employees say:
"I feel very fortunate to work for EY. I was able to balance my work and personal life for 20 years while raising my daughter and taking care of my mother when she was ill, all while working remotely in unique roles. I'm proud to tell others I work for EY and appreciate all the opportunities, compensation, and benefits. I am a Wellness Champion, and feel the firm does an amazing job to ensure people have resources to help with physical, mental, emotional, and financial needs."
Big Four consulting giant EY fell 14 places on the list while weathering multiple rounds of layoffs, including dozens of partners in December. Still, EY’s U.S. employee benefits remain top-notch, offering 25 no-cost counseling and mental health coach sessions per year (including household family members), flexible vacation, and full weeks off during company shutdown time in July and December, in addition to three four-day weekends for Memorial Day, Labor Day, and Thanksgiving. Some teams are testing out four-day workweeks.
