Ernst & Young

Ernst & Young, a global leader in professional services, is committed to restoring the public’s trust in professional services firms and in the quality of financial reporting. Its 140,440 people in 140 countries pursue the highest levels of integrity, quality, and professionalism in providing a range of sophisticated services centered on our core competencies of auditing, accounting, tax, and transactions.

Strategy

In order to strengthen and further expand our position as a leading auditing and 
advisory company, we are committed to thetheme “Passionate Client Service”, which means focusing all our energy on providing exceptional service and added value for our clients. Our activities are based upon the three strategic pillars – people, quality and growth. Our aim is to achieve sustain-able and profitable growth by employing the best people and offering the highest qualityservices.

People first

As a service provider, Ernst & Young is a “people” company. On a daily basis, our employees and teams develop client-focused
solutions and are thus primarily responsible for our reputation and our success in the market. For this reason, we take the training and development of our employees very seriously.

For a service provider like Ernst & Young, good employees are the most precious resource. Expertise and integrity, respect and teamwork and a passion for their work are the qualities that characterize Ernst & Young employees and that form the basis of the quality and trust needed to deliver services in a dedicated and client-focused manner.

Identifying and winning talented staff

An ongoing supply of qualified staff is a key asset for the future of Ernst & Young. Particularly in an economic expansion, 
recruiting promising young employees presents a challenge for us as well. This is why Ernst & Young maintains a presence at the universities and in the relevant professional journals and has continually bolstered communication for potential new hires.

The best people want to work for the best companies. Our strong brand, based on sustained performance, is thus also important in making Ernst & Young an attractive employer. We regularly rank as an attractive company in the “Universum” and “Trendence” studies that are conducted every year.

The path to personal development

Upon completing their university education our employees have a solid base of specialist knowledge that they continue to develop in specific areas. Ernst & Young places a correspondingly strong emphasis on specialist training and further education. An individual Learning Map, which charts the profile requirements of our employees and which is reviewed at regular intervals, documents the development stage of each and every employee at all levels within the organization.

Diversity takes us forward

Diversity is not an internal program at Ernst & Young; it is an important part of our corporate culture. Person-to-person exchanges are indispensable for an auditing and advisory company which operates in over 140 countries worldwide and offers a cohesive service network. All too often “diversity” is reduced to the integration of women into the business world. This narrow interpretation is not what Ernst & Young’s diversity approach is about.
