Pros

I had a great experience working at BDO. From day one, I was supported by a friendly and knowledgeable team who were always willing to share their expertise. The firm has a strong focus on professional development. I learned a lot about both technical accounting skills and client management. The work environment is collaborative and respectful, with an emphasis on delivering quality service to clients. Management is approachable and open to new ideas, which made it easy to feel valued as part of the team. Overall, BDO is an excellent place for anyone looking to build a solid foundation in accounting and grow within a supportive, professional environment. I’m grateful for my time there and the experience I gained.

Cons

Nothing to note here! My experience was all positive.

Pros

Compensation is OK. There are some really nice people in the organization to work with, but you have to find them.

Cons

If you are not part of the SWC "club" (company name prior to them joining BDO), good luck. Poor leadership!!! Practice lead talks to everyone like they are talking to a CEO, not relatable in most cases. No clear employee development plans. You are held accountable for things completely outside of your individual control. They stress incorporating AI into work strategy, but have no plan on what that looks like or how to do it and want everyone to formulate it because leadership has no roadmap. One has no control over where you want to take your career, yet you are expected to know everything, about everything. As a result, you become an expert of nothing! Work assigned rarely leverages skills, almost as if they throw darts to see who works on what.
