      Good Place to Work.....but, perception is EVERYTHING

      Tax senior associate
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      I really appreciated the openness of management to share financial information with everyone. It creates a sense of belonging and group ownership.

      Cons

      Perception is key. It doesn't matter how early you get in if people don't see you...what matters is that people see you stay late. It's all about how people see you not really about the work that you're doing.

      USED TO be a great place to work for

      Assurance senior
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      In the general assurance group, depending on which client you were on, you usually worked with very experiened managers and partners who willingly shared their knowledge with you. Most wilingly took time out to go over several topics and they made sure you undertsood.

      Cons

      Your work week is comparable to the big 4 but do not have a big 4 salary. They promote 'flexibility' in the workplace however they have demonstrated that they do not believe in it. They want you to work 7 days a week. Fine, you may ask to leave early on a Friday for something person,. but you WILL be making it up Sat & Sun. Several managers and partners do not even know what weekedn means as they are emailing you on Sunday and expect a response! Some will even call you on your cell phone on Sundays! Family- what is that ? They used to care about it and be flexible when you had something going on. Well NO more. It's all about how much blood they can draw out of you. For the women out there, do not think of being at BDO if you want to have a family. They have already layed off 3 women who were expecting/gave birth.
