Pros

Not a lot, some nice hard working and undervalued people.

Cons

Company values are terrible, it is all about money. People are not valued, treated badly and often abused. Attitude from senior management is that everyone can be replaced with an untrained temp for a very low wage. Pay is low, benefits not good. It is much more about getting the owner on TV than actual real caring for people. People are promised many things, but they do not materialze, too many excuses. You can work 12 hours a day 7 days a week and it is never enough. Turnover is ridiculous, people often laid off, fired, escorted out or the employee just gets fed up and walks. BDA used to have something special, but somewhere along the way they lost it and with current senior management they will not ever find it again.

Pros

Good working environment, alot of freedom, frequent "moral boosters" such as holiday parties and food.

Cons

Too many meetings without any clear direction or purpose, and too many "rah rah" type speeches from upper management. The upper management of this company likes to put on the facade about how much they care for their employees but in the end, when it comes time to promote from within and compensate their employees, they drop the ball. This company makes little attempt to reward current employees or move up current employees, they prefer to fire existing employees and rehire less qualified, but cheaper people. This is a trend I saw repeated again and again.
