About the employer

EY, formerly Ernst & Young, is a global professional-services organization providing assurance, consulting, strategy and transactions, tax, and related advisory services. It serves clients ranging from growing businesses to major multinational corporations across industries. EY Global Delivery Services supports client engagements through teams located in countries such as the Philippines, India, and other international delivery centers. The Philippine practice, with major operations in Metro Manila, provides technology, consulting, finance, risk, tax, and assurance capabilities to EY member firms worldwide. EY emphasizes professional development, collaboration, innovation, ethical conduct, and helping organizations address business and technology challenges. The GDS Consulting team commonly works with international stakeholders, modern delivery methods, enterprise platforms, data, and quality engineering. Employment conditions, benefits, and career progression vary by position, experience, business unit, and applicable Philippine policies.

Working in Philippines

The Philippines offers technology, shared-services, consulting, finance, healthcare, tourism, and customer-support opportunities, especially in Metro Manila, Cebu, and Davao. Metro Manila is the main corporate center and includes Taguig, Makati, and Quezon City; Cebu provides a more relaxed base with a strong business-process and technology sector. Filipino culture is generally welcoming, family-oriented, English-friendly, and influenced by Asian, Spanish, and American traditions. Lifestyle ranges from busy urban living to affordable coastal and provincial communities, with warm weather, varied food, and extensive beaches and mountains. Foreign employees usually need an appropriate work visa or permit sponsored or supported by their employer; visa-free entry is not permission to work. Relocating typically involves securing an employment offer, checking immigration requirements, arranging housing and health coverage, and budgeting for traffic and urban living costs. Regulations can change, so consult Philippine immigration authorities or an accredited relocation adviser.
