The EY Chicago story
The EY story in Chicago is built on a history of serving clients in this market that dates back more than 100 years to 1906, when the first office of Arthur Young and Co. was founded. Since that time, we have grown, and our breadth of scale and services has continued to expand to serve a range of clients, from the largest and most iconic brands, to middle-market high-growth companies, to founders and family-owned businesses.
The EY purpose is to build a better working world. We live our purpose by putting clients at the center of everything we do, genuinely caring for our people and providing them with the experiences and opportunities to grow and build their careers, as well as dedicating our time and resources for the betterment of the Chicago community.
We’ve also demonstrated our commitment to the city through investments in our newly renovated office space at 155 N. Wacker Street, our technology-focused space at the EY Chicago wavespace™ and Studio, and our strategic membership with and space at MxD.
