Pros

in order to gain more professional experience, always got lots of things to do during the end of each accounting year

Cons

The salaries and holiday policies are very poor, so employees wouldn't stay for a long time, most of them are just trying to gain experience

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.
