Pros

A great firm to work for if you want broad exposure to mid market companies.

Cons

After the restructuring in 2009, teams tended to be under pressure to complete work within very tight time-frames.

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.
