NO Company is Perfect...BUT...

Pros

To be honest I don't understand this site and these reviews. What do YOU want in a company? Do you aspire to work where good employees are rewarded with opportunities to grow their careers and make meaningful contributions and where crummy ones who waste everyone's time get shown the door? Yeah...perhaps the negative reviews are written by those crummy "complainers." Better said, if you resist change, embrace the status quo, lack urgency, commiserate at the water cooler, blame others for your shortcomings (instead of taking responsibility) then BDA is definitely NOT for you. Personally, I've never worked anywhere with as much "heart and soul" as BDA...and wish I was still there. To have a CEO with genuine compassion for his/her people, who encourages ideas from every level of the company, AND who knows your name (everyone's name) is nearly unheard of in business today...but it exists at BDA.

Cons

Ummm,..sorry to all you animal lovers out there. Nope, you can not bring your pet dog, cat, parrot, iguana, gecko, gerbil, chicken, lama, to the office!

Pros

They make you feel like they're honest and helpful. You'll think -wow these people are so nice.

Cons

Appearances are deceiving and all the "family and team" slogans, hugs and kumbaya activities are just smoke in mirrors. I didn't know much about this company and the reviews here concerned me but I thought that maybe they weren't true. Well, if you're considering this company and have other opportunities, please take anything else but this even if this job looks better on paper. Trust me. Not sure how much I can say here because they make you sign your life away prior to starting work there...they've been sued a lot I guess, big surprise. Just wanted to pay it forward to help anyone else out there who may be considering working here- run as fast as you can!
