Pros

Many people have been with this firm for more than ten, twenty, even thirty years - they must be doing something right! It's a great place to work with lots of opportunities to learn and grow. Salaries are generally above average for the industry. The people are some of the best I've worked with - they truly care about their employees. Those who actively contribute to making the firm a better place and help the firm achieve its goals can expect to be warmly received into the fold. Those who are "in it for themselves" shouldn't be surprised when they're dissatisfied. You get what you put in.

Cons

Better benefits (including a better dental plan and vision care) would be a nice improvement.

Pros

Compensation is OK. There are some really nice people in the organization to work with, but you have to find them.

Cons

If you are not part of the SWC "club" (company name prior to them joining BDO), good luck. Poor leadership!!! Practice lead talks to everyone like they are talking to a CEO, not relatable in most cases. No clear employee development plans. You are held accountable for things completely outside of your individual control. They stress incorporating AI into work strategy, but have no plan on what that looks like or how to do it and want everyone to formulate it because leadership has no roadmap. One has no control over where you want to take your career, yet you are expected to know everything, about everything. As a result, you become an expert of nothing! Work assigned rarely leverages skills, almost as if they throw darts to see who works on what.
