Pros

BDO offers several growth opportunities, firm leadership is top notch, and the overall work environment offers flexibility and with competitive pay.

Cons

The hours, like more public accounting jobs, can be brutal at times. The firm could use some improvement in their training offerings, especially for new hires.

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.
