Run away - Core Tax Associate BDO Employee Review

Lack of communication between leadership and the staff is constant on every annual survey, but never improves and mgmt doesnt care enough to improve. They’re trying to hold onto remaining talent because people are leaving by the masses. The company still operates like it’s MRD with the elitist attitude towards the Staff. There is no clear leadership, so you’re being directed from dozens of people. Partners and directors will sit on work for months, then drop it in your lap with an ASAP turnaround. If you want long hours and being underpaid, work here. If you want to watch management treat their staff like underlings, work here. If you want want to be blamed for leadership failings, work here. If you want to see other offices use the BDO’s perks and not the Norfolk office, work here. Leadership takes no responsibility for their mishaps. If you want to drown in a chaotic, unorganized mayhem, where they divvy out information on a “need to know” basis, but it’s your fault for not understanding, work here. When you tell them you are unhappy and found another job, they’ve been known to call your new employer to rescind their offer.
