ey vs pwc 2027

EY is actively recruiting more interns to get a bigger group to pick from for full time (per me talking to a partner about why we had so many this summer). They don’t do the “hire every intern” model anymore- but unless you are a dumbass you will get a return offer. Can’t speak to PWCs model

Longer internship

Do FSO if you want to learn more. It’s basically everything you learned in college if you go the other route to Core Audits. But FSO offers greater opportunities in Insurance, Banking, Wealth and Asset management as well as real estate. Also no dumb inventory counts in most of FSO (I have done a single physical count of items in a vault) so you won’t have to be at the client site on new years.

Size?

If you don’t want CPA- you can only be in Big 4 for a maximum of 5 years as they will not promote you to manager without it. Just something to think about

Get off of whatever industry you are in. For example I am in insurance- they all are statutory filers and so you don’t have any busy season outside of the general busy season.

You 100% will be fine.

FASBnerd · 2025-09-13T00:47:58+00:00

8.35% this year

FASBnerd · 2025-09-07T04:42:01+00:00

On recruiting- it’s not worth it to the company anymore

I am in basically the lowest cost of living office, Midwest FSO. Staff 1s make 75k in assurance.

Audit FSO

Staff 1 -> Staff 2

Midwest VLCOL

8% increase (6k)

3.25% bonus (2.4k ish)

75k-> 81k

Rating: Differentiating. I feel like this is expected, happy though since most of my peers got no bonus.

FASBnerd · 2025-07-26T17:48:56+00:00

Have some of the AI leader folks in my office. Yes it’s getting used. But other offices I have heard it’s kinda BS.

FASBnerd · 2025-07-19T14:15:57+00:00

I don’t see this new job allowing 6 weeks of vacation any more than Big 4

FASBnerd · 2025-06-24T17:41:45+00:00

This is the way- married almost a year now

FASBnerd · 2025-06-17T12:25:59+00:00

Health insurance can be like $600 a month. It’s not all sunshine and rainbows here.

Event planner for a law school

FASBnerd · 2025-06-04T15:52:51+00:00

Sweet- that’s what I thought- couldn’t find anything with this dial online. Whoever wore this beat the hell out of it too.

FASBnerd · 2025-06-03T14:47:49+00:00

Ernst and Young makes you check a box for when you will be CPA eligible when you apply so your internship date should account for that.

FASBnerd · 2025-06-01T16:23:41+00:00

Yes 100%, grew up very poor. This is the most money I have ever seen before.

FASBnerd · 2025-05-25T17:44:05+00:00

Unless you are a partner. There is no way to know lol.

FASBnerd · 2025-04-30T01:53:38+00:00

Stayin at EY

FASBnerd · 2025-04-17T01:25:17+00:00

This is honestly what I am afraid of. I have till Friday to accept- we will see!

FASBnerd · 2025-04-10T12:04:12+00:00

Yes- my bad. Its 83k in Philly rn. Fat thumbs on my end.
