Pros

The only Pro I can think of at this point in time is, leaving!

Cons

-No training -No respect -If you like being spoken down to then look no further, BDO is the place for you. -You like brown nosing you say? well you will be in great company as there is a lot of that going on. - As per above, If you do the above then you will be favourited...wooo!! -Micro-management....only way you will receive direction as you won't receive it from your actual manager ! -CPD? Well it will be provided as long as the cost for you CPD can be justified (So..if its cheap or free.....it will be provided!!)

Pros

Compensation is OK. There are some really nice people in the organization to work with, but you have to find them.

Cons

If you are not part of the SWC "club" (company name prior to them joining BDO), good luck. Poor leadership!!! Practice lead talks to everyone like they are talking to a CEO, not relatable in most cases. No clear employee development plans. You are held accountable for things completely outside of your individual control. They stress incorporating AI into work strategy, but have no plan on what that looks like or how to do it and want everyone to formulate it because leadership has no roadmap. One has no control over where you want to take your career, yet you are expected to know everything, about everything. As a result, you become an expert of nothing! Work assigned rarely leverages skills, almost as if they throw darts to see who works on what.
