Pros

Remote/hybrid was flexible. Good work culture depends on what team you are on and who the partners/directors you work for are.

Cons

Constant layoffs and finding work in order to stay billable.

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.
