Structure and Support

Very structured and organised. We are told when we are in college and given full time off for study leave so we don't work and study at the same time.

4/5
Our team lets us get on with study and even study during core work hours if we need to or if we don't have much work on

4/5
The tutors are very good and supportive. There are many ways for you to contact and speak to them regularly.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
3/5
My role is very tax specific so some of the work is relevant but not all of it
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
5/5
Yes so many! Theres too many to list and explain but there is definitely something for everyone.

Recommendations & Advice

Would you recommend EY to a friend?
Yes
Why?
Friendly work environment, lots of people from different backgrounds and cultures. The work load isn't exhausting in Tax which is good. We have peak times but they're not overbearing.

Be yourself.
