Great People to Work With!

Business Outlook

Pros

BDA employs some really great, salt of the Earth people. Working from home flexibility is great. Opportunities to work on some really fun projects. Fun employee events and Beer Fridays.

Cons

Very hard work and a strenuous workload. You will not work 40 hours. CSC's are very underpaid for what they do, but there are opportunities to be promoted.

Cons

BDA has had some growing pains the past few years (acquisitions, onboarding new large clients at the busiest time of the year, warehouse issues), but is learning from the challenges and is emerging a better company.
