      Pros

      Big firm Some people are nice

      Cons

      They run this place like a slave camp. 60-80 hours a week is expected and you’ll be called out on it if you don’t do it. Pay is extremely low compared to the other similar companies. They keep repeating how much money they’ll make if we work a lot of hours but we get no bonuses or anything. Definitely no life/work balance. If you’re starting in this field, look somewhere else. Trust me!!. Even if the other companies make you work similar hours, you’ll get paid a good chunk more.

      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.
