      So Disappointed - Senior Manager, Advisory BDO Employee Review

      Pros

      Pay is good and people are very nice to work with.

      Cons

      IF YOU GET LAID OFF BEWARE: BDO keeps your flex spending money if you don't use it in the month you are let go. I get that it's legal but it is reprehensible that they use this as a revenue source when they have let you go with a totally crappy severance package (4 weeks). I'm struggling because I have no job and no insurance and they kept my $1300 I had contributed of my own money. BDO over hired during the pandemic and made a poor choice with a recent merger. Massive layoff last summer because management did not have enough work to keep us busy.

      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.
