In this episode, I sit down with an ex-employee of Ernst & Young who shares her raw, unfiltered experience navigating the world of finance. Starting with a Bachelor of Commerce, she initially pursued Chartered Accountancy but later switched gears to do an MBA in Finance. After landing a role as a consultant at Deloitte, she found the work culture to be supportive and rewarding, but the long hours and lack of work-life balance made it tough.

Things took a turn when she moved to EY. Here, she faced a toxic work environment with high-pressure demands, a lack of support, and even situations where her health was compromised—like being forced to work through the night despite feeling unwell. After two grueling years, she chose to walk away without another job lined up, prioritizing her well-being.

In this candid conversation, we dive deep into the realities of toxic workplaces, burnout, and how to protect yourself in demanding careers. I also share my own experiences at Deutsche Bank, FIS, and KPMG, along with key takeaways on setting boundaries, managing expectations, and standing up for yourself.

It’s an episode filled with real talk, hard lessons, and survival strategies for anyone in the finance world. Tune in for an honest discussion on surviving and thriving in high-pressure finance roles.
