The big four consulting firms have announced considerable layoffs as the slowdown in the economy begins to impact the jobs market.
Professional services firm Ernst & Young (EY) recently made 232 employees redundant following a cut of 338 jobs by rival firm PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC). The latter’s decision was spurred by longtime client Westpac’s announcement that it would not renew its auditing contract with the firm.
