After 3 years of abuse and thinking it would get better once “I paid my dues,” I finally left EY a year ago but the scars still exist. They brain wash and mold you into a certain way of thinking and acting, then you end up becoming a mere shell of your former self. I found myself living for EY at one point… leaving the office at midnight and sleeping a few hours only to get back up and do it all over again. You’d think they would offer more vacation, a nice bonus, overtime pay, or something balance out the horrid experience, but that would be to humane.

Shell of your former self is a great way to put it.  I didn’t think it would get to me like this, but sitting in that environment for at least 8 hours a day is the worst thing I’ve ever had to do.  Read the Big 4 article and join the facebook group.

I’m going on vacation tomorrow, thank fucking god.  But all I’m thinking about is how much worse it’s going to feel when I have to go back.  Fuck my life.
