Vantaggi

No pros for currently working here

Svantaggi

- Horrible Leadership, flaky and untrustworthy - Unfair and nepotistic promotion culture. People get promoted even if they're not ready for promotion. - Dodgy staff and team culture, your privacy and individuality is not respected at all! -unrealistic performance expectations. An excel score determines your worth here and not your actual expertise. - Graduates beware, you will have no work for at least 70% of the year. You will sit idle, not get enough work because they don't win enough clients even though they try to sell it to you in interviews and team meetings. - No authentic and genuine care is given for employee wellness. - Remuneration is definitely not on par with industry standards. In a nutshell they're a second tier company that can only wish upon a lucky start to ever compete with the likes of the big four. In my honest opinion, don't waste your time even of you're desperately looking for a job, if you join BDO SA, particularly the jhb office, you'll leave there mentally, emotionally, and just overall miserable and worse off than when you were before joining them. The jhb office in particular has the worse sort of leadership a corporate could ever have, all talk and mind you very big talk, but in reality, no substance to any of it.

Vantaggi

Consultants were not overworked, and people are generally staying in their own lane. Strong knowlegeable teammates and lots of internal resources to grow. Work life balance was good.

Svantaggi

I left during a time of transition, since the top practice director retired and the EBA leader took over as interim leader. This interim guy seemed to be waiting for something to take any action with current resources, and he was not too interested in rallying or figuring things out as a team. If he had expectations, they were never communicated to me. The lack of clarity was very challenging for me personally, and it came off as a lack of support. I think others in the team probably feel similarly.
