Pros

BDA definitely does a great job of balancing hard work and fun in a workplace. There are regular company events and outings, as well as individual team and department events. It's one of those places that fosters interaction between departments/groups and you get a chance to work with everyone. Upper management and executives are very accessible, even to subordinates. One of the best reasons to work at BDA is that you feel like you are a part of something that is growing, and growing big, and the work you do can have an impact on the company's success.

Cons

The communication level does something to be desired. Consistently, you may find yourself putting in more hours than necessary to complete a task. With that adding up, one can easily feel that they are underpaid for the amount of work they have to do. Depending on your area of job function, there may not be a lot of opportunity to immediately ascend the "corporate ladder".

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.
