Do NOT join BDO Mgmt Consulting dept

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Good colleagues (to share the burden with)

Cons

The department is run terribly, with zero strategy in place (although upper management likes to insist there is). More decisions are made because of being reactionary and moody than actual long term planning Several managers and junior staff have left. They get treated poorly, pay & benefits are petty, learning is limited, overworked...the list goes on Most days are a mess trying to deliver work that upper management has promised client (often without letting project team know beforehand). No resources, no actual consulting experts...just left to figure things out on your own List really goes on - just save yourself the hassle (no matter how desperate you may be) and don't join

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

New office. Can work from home sometimes. Allows you to work on a compressed week schedule and get a Flex Day (day off) every two weeks.

Cons

Work overload- need more staff! Management does not care- complained to HR but nothing happened. No advancement- always hire externally. No acts of appreciation for staff-no lunch no celebrations. Unmotivated and left company.
