some people on this forum need to learn that if you have nothing nice or constructive to say, then don't say it at all! Lets speak from fact here. EY PAS is a very healthy service line within EY Advisory. It has a mix of public and private clients and is seen as a key provider of project / programme / portfolio management advice in the marketplace. It is also used extensively by other EY service lines in cross selling (I hate that term but that's what it is) services the whole of advisory offers. PAS has a wide range of skills and experience from standard large capital programmes to cost reduction projects, PMO implementations, etc. It operates across a variety of industries including aerospace & defence, government, consumer products, etc. Clearly all of the Big 4 have a big share of the public sector work but there is a big investment in the private sector underway and for firms of this size the opportunities are yours to take...it all depends on your attitude. hope this helps
