Ernst & Young - FSO Advisory

Hey Blind, Is anyone here familiar with the Advisory practice within EY’s Financial Services Office? I’ve been in the financial services industry for just over 6 years at top US banks (think GS/MS/BofA) and was thinking about pursuing a jump towards FSO Advisory. Have they been hiring a lot recently? It looks like their are almost 75-100 roles open at any given time in the NYC area. I’m open to any advice here!

Major money maker for EY but had a rough couple of years in BCM due to deregulation. Overall, one of the most solid groups within EY.

What teams in Banking & Capital Markets have been hit the hardest? Anything I should avoid when I apply?

FSO Advisory is huge. What pillar? Risk or PI? PI is generally good. But Risk roles vary significantly. PI Capital Markets is doing pretty well recently.

I’m eyeing PI but my skillset could be a good fit for both. Why is Performance Improvement doing so well? Also, how can I learn more about the Risk roles you’re referring to?

Deregulation like the other guy said. Risk’s QAS and TPRC are good practices for quantitative experience, but the rest of Risk roles are not that interesting. Honestly in this environment, I wouldn’t go to Risk. DM me if you have other questions. I’m in FSO PI
