About the employer

EY, formerly known as Ernst & Young, is a global professional services organization providing assurance, tax, consulting, and strategy and transactions services. Its clients include multinational corporations, governments, and growing businesses across many industries. EY’s Global Delivery Services organization supports international client engagements through specialized teams in locations such as the Philippines, India, and other major service centers. In the Philippines, EY employs professionals in consulting, technology, audit, tax, finance, analytics, and business support. The firm invests heavily in digital transformation, cloud platforms, enterprise applications, cybersecurity, and emerging technologies. Employees commonly work on multinational projects and collaborate with colleagues across different countries and time zones. The organization generally offers structured career development, professional training, certification opportunities, and exposure to large-scale consulting programs.

Working in Philippines

The Philippines offers strong opportunities in IT consulting, shared services, software development, finance, customer operations, engineering, and digital transformation, especially in Metro Manila, Cebu, and emerging hubs such as Davao and Iloilo. Filipino workplace culture is generally welcoming, relationship-oriented, and respectful, with English widely used in business. Manila provides the broadest career market but has heavy traffic and a fast-paced lifestyle. Cebu offers a more relaxed setting with beaches and a growing technology sector, while other islands provide lower living costs and a quieter environment. Foreign professionals normally need an employer-sponsored work visa or permit, with requirements depending on nationality and assignment length. Relocating employees should budget for housing, healthcare, transport, and possible international-school costs. The country has warm tropical weather, diverse food, vibrant festivals, and excellent opportunities for travel, although typhoons and infrastructure disruptions can occur.
