Pros

For a part time retail job, this is pretty easy and has some great coworkers

Cons

-Really bad communication -Highly unorganized -Schedule was always last minute (often still had mistakes) -No one told us beforehand that we would have to pay for parking (each driver spent several hundreds on it overall) -They watch security cameras all day and listened to employee conversations -Many were often promised promotions (seemingly to make them do more work) and then no one would get promoted -Everyone is hired through a temp agency and told they will become regular employees, but no one was made one the entire time I worked there -They told us we couldn't discuss pay with each other (which is illegal in WA) and tried to make us believe we'd be in legal trouble if we did. We almost fell for it, which completely ruined any trust I had in the company

Pros

Lots of alcohol (like all the time)

Cons

The HR department is totally incompetent and the management team is being lead by a CEO that has no clue how to run a business. They say team and family, but have no loyalty to anyone even 20 year employees. Hours are long and pay is crap and they don't pay overtime.

Hi, Thank you for providing this feedback and we're sorry that you feel BDA leadership & HR isn’t performing at optimal levels. Like any team, performance can go up and down but we’d like to build more consistency so that our associates feel confident that we are pulling in the same direction. It’s no secret that BDA has experienced incredible growth in a very short period of time and it has strained all of us. It’s no excuse but it’s reality and that’s where we need to rely on our core values, that team, family, and making things happen the best way will get us to a more organized and consistent place. As we work to improve, it would be really helpful to hear more of your thoughts so that we can work to improve the situation. If you would like, please send us a personal message at feedback@bdainc.com to continue the conversation. Sincerely, BDA Team
