Senior Associate Review

Work on audits. Do more basic admin work.

Working in a pressured environment. Dealing with overloads of work. Having to time manage your workload.

It’s not been the best years of my life. Under very high pressure and haven’t felt very supported or appreciated always.

It’s been alright. Scheduling at work isn’t always great and I’ve had to work on multiple occasions on the days leading up to exams or when I am supposed to have days off for coursework.

They give time off to study, but it’s a very short time period as they want us back working as soon as possible.

The teaching was generally good. The marking of mocks and other tests leading up to the exams need to be improved as there were times I only received feedback a day or two before my final exam.

Quite well. It is an accounting related role so learning about the field is helpful.

Yes there are multiple events for different things held at work.

No

For the experience and name on your cv, I would definitely recommend EY. However for your mental health and personal life it isn’t the best place to work.

Be prepared to sacrifice a lot.
