Salary at EY Australia

While it is comparable to the market rate in audit, is it still a pretty sore point. The good thing is that progressions and promotions are yours to lose (i.e. if you stay on track and put in the work, the promotions will happen)

Pay for graduates is good because they pay for your CA study, and you have other perks like time off in lieu. When you are at a senior level the pay is not as rewarding; however, I know there will be changes from October 2019

No bonuses, low pay. No pay transparency beyond graduate level.

We do not receive bonuses as a general rule whoever in previous years, due to the performance of PAS, we received credit vouchers from the partners which was a lovely thank you for our work. Every level got the same amount which was also really great.

Fair, given the role and in comparison to the industry. Could be a little higher though

Below market average

No bonuses. Pay is fine, and typical of what you'd expect at a big 4. It's competitive to get into, so don't expect a great salary. However, with each year your salary grows and if you outperform you can start negotiating larger pay raises and promotions almost immediately. Great growth opportunities. The company also spends a lot of money on you with events, travel, L&D, etc.

Pay and bonuses aren't great, but I expected this.

Pay isn't much for the hours but it's all about the resume.

the opportunity for pay increase and bonuses is there if justified

Pay is very low and not competitive relative to other Big 4 as you progress beyond graduate level.

Terrible, way below market average.

Very underpaid. Bonuses are small and rare

Underpaid for work and hours.

The pay at my company is average for a non-specialised consulting company. Bonuses do occur, but rarely. People do not work at the company for the pay, and that is not the company's main selling point.

Pay is not based on performance and is relatively low compared to market averages.

I'm not given any bonuses at my level. Obviously I would prefer it if I did. However, I must admit that my pay is quite competitive, and it has risen by quite a bit since I started here (only a year and a half ago).

Pay is not high enough for the hours worked.

Good starting salary and compared to my colleagues in other professional service firms, however for the hours I work I am more unsatisfied

I think pay at my work is fair and as it isn't my biggest motivator, it's not really something I think about often at this stage of my life. I think bonuses could be better managed and a better strategy in place for rewarding high performance in teams.

Team and 'Family' events - staff of different rank right through to partner go out for events such as bowling or mini golf to help open the lines of communication, Christmas parties, firmwide events, quiz nights etc.

After 7, dinner and ride home can be expensed back to the company. There are company events that are free e.g. Christmas Parties, there is also a Social Club (fee can be paid upfront or paid each month out from our salary) If you are travelling for work, the traveling budget is pretty generous and can be expensed back to the company.

Free dinners - we have a big dinner once every 2 months

We get end of financial year team lunches, workplace parties in July and December, dinner and taxis when we work late and dinners for special events like winning new clients.

Lots of team dinners, events for every occasion, if you travel for work basically everything you buy is paid for, very flexible work policies.

Flexible working arrangements, e.g. working from home.

expenses are covered by the company, as well as a number of reward systems

Received a relocation allowance to move offices, occasional free tickets/ events at NGV, discounts at gyms and fitness studios.

Lots of drinking socials

Applause points that can be used to redeem a variety of gifts and goods on EY's own website.

I would say the company doesn't have any unusual perks. The best perks I'd say is getting to travel for work/retreats with all expenses paid.

Dinner and taxi paid for if working late

Dinner and taxis.

The company has partnerships with certain health insurers and banks, meaning discounts on packages.

There is a social club that is run by the company which provides events for employees to go to. However there is a monthly membership fee. Depending on how critical pieces of client work are there will be reimbursements for taxis, flights and meals if you are required to work later than normal working hours

Perks are available as part of the social club but there are limitations and restrictions that make it difficult to obtain these.

Social club for $15 gives movie vouchers, Christmas party, food voucher, drinks etc Free dinner and cab if we are working after 7pm, client lunches

Lots of social events

A rewards system that allows you to receive 'e-money' that you can spend on a wide range of things.

Free dinners when working late, opportunities to travel on some jobs.
