BDO reviews

IF YOU GET LAID OFF BEWARE: BDO keeps your flex spending money if you don't use it in the month you are let go. I get that it's legal but it is reprehensible that they use this as a revenue source when they have let you go with a totally crappy severance package (4 weeks). I'm struggling because I have no job and no insurance and they kept my $1300 I had contributed of my own money. BDO over hired during the pandemic and made a poor choice with a recent merger. Massive layoff last summer because management did not have enough work to keep us busy.

- Burnout due to long hours and lack of resourcing. Some managers and graduates took months off work because of stress and mental health especially during the pandemic - Lack of diversity, equity and inclusion for ethnic minorities from assistant manager and up - The ethnic minority assistant managers and managers that were role models were treated badly so left - No clarity on performance appraisals and based on favouritism especially if you are a white male - Audit Partners and senior managers carry out targeted bullying and harassment especially if you are good at your job and your clients and teams respect and like you - Lack of training for junior members of team - No consequences for partners when bullying is reported. Partners are protected even with multiple people coming forward about being bullied - HR protects the bullies then punishes the bullied Work at BDO to get it on your CV but don't stay too long or your mental health will suffer
