Pros

Great company values. Infrastructure made working there easier relative to other mid-sized accounting firms. I felt the firm really valued its employees.

Cons

Very audit-centered which exposes the firm to high liability risks. Auditors aren't used to dealing with consultants/experts yet.

BDO trips over itself by trying too hard to be like the big 4

Pros

Accountants have excellent technical knowledge, lots of great people spread out across the firm

Cons

Not having effective leadership in the sales and marketing group has made internal politics very apparent and has left gaps in many areas that affects the very nature of the department.
