Pros

I have been at BDA since January 2018 and came here hoping to find a company that understands, and values, the contributions a performing Supply Chain Operation can have in the success of a company. The leadership team not only understands the value but encourages the team for it's input. They are engaged and have an open mind in hearing new ideas and discussing to better understand. I have not seen this collaboration in a company and have worked for MSFT, SBUX and many other fortune 100 companies. Also, our growth for the next few years looks tremendous!

Cons

If you don't fit the culture you will have a hard time so be sue to ask questions while interviewing. The company doesn't like to carry "deadwood" as they are privately owned and clear on their performance metrics as well as how to get there. It is not a large company so knowing your business, its key drivers and improving its performance is expected.This is not for everyone.

Pros

- Decent base salary if this is your first job out of University. - Free Swag - WFH Fridays - Smart and helpful colleagues

Cons

- Incredibly stressful, do NOT take this job if you do not have a high stress tolerance. - A ton of competing priorities that almost always require quick/immediate action. - You get a ton of emails and are expected to be able to pull up and reference any of them at a moments notice. - Constant whiplash between doing deep, focused work (presentation/catalogs) that have a ton of details and require your full attention versus quick/rapid fire tasks that you must address immediately. There were days where I was working on one presentation all day and couldn't get it done because of how much I was getting pinged to resolve other issues. - To get promoted you must essentially do the job of 2 people (CSC and PSA). Beyond that, there is no real career progression unless you want to go into sales. - Management always says to raise your hand if you need help. But when you ask for help, there is always pushback in the form of others having more task hours than you. - CEO took away one of the WFH days. When Qualtrics had negative feedback he essentially said "If you don't like it - then leave". He is a "Do as I say, not as I do." type of leader. - Workload and responsibilities are not commiserate to the salary.
