In 1989 Ernst & Whinney merged with the fifth-largest accounting firm, Arthur Young, to create Ernst & Young.
Ernst & Young went through a rebranding in 2013 and the name of the company was officially changed to EY, which had been an informal name for the company previous to the rebranding.

I have been calling the Los Angeles office in order to obtain model validation services and the office was closed at 4pm on 2/7/19 and then I made exactly 10 phone calls today and spoke with the receptionist who could not help me and I was disconnected (3) times as well.
The only reason I am writing is to let you know how concerning this is and I if I owned this office I would appreciate knowing what was happening.
Good morning
I am the supervisor of the Business Relations Unit for the New Jersey Commission for the Blind and Visually impaired. Your company is listed as the number one company for diversity and inclusion in the workplace. I would like to reach out to your D&I manager so that I could introduce myself and the services that we offer companies when hiring legally blind or vision impaired individuals. Would it be possible to provide me with their information?
Thank you for time.
