Pros

The team is really hands-on and very much like a "team". It's a great work environment, especially if you're starting with no experience. A few free food here and there (that drastically went down over the year lol)

Cons

The yearly bonus is so disappointing.... Second, some managements don't know how to manage. I guess that's being offset by the other managers that do know how to manage, but then again, you don't want to be teamed with "THAT" kind of manager.

Pros

There actually are great people, but you play manager roulette.

Cons

BDO is notorious for promoting people who just never leave. The middle of the road, not great, not awful, people get promoted over and over again. There have been changes every 3 seconds since the ESOP. Terrible communication around change (non-existent). My manager's favorite term was "We are building the plane as we fly it". After 4 years, I was hoping to have more plane built. It was never built.
