Vantaggi

- Growing so great exposure to clients taken from Big 4 - Audit sector team below Manager was supportive - Great look on CV - Good exposure to client senior management Rating would be higher but toxic work environment that is led by the white male partners, sexism and racism, inappropriate jokes about female employees especially when they get drunk.

Svantaggi

- Burnout due to long hours and lack of resourcing. Some managers and graduates took months off work because of stress and mental health especially during the pandemic - Lack of diversity, equity and inclusion for ethnic minorities from assistant manager and up - The ethnic minority assistant managers and managers that were role models were treated badly so left - No clarity on performance appraisals and based on favouritism especially if you are a white male - Audit Partners and senior managers carry out targeted bullying and harassment especially if you are good at your job and your clients and teams respect and like you - Lack of training for junior members of team - No consequences for partners when bullying is reported. Partners are protected even with multiple people coming forward about being bullied - HR protects the bullies then punishes the bullied Work at BDO to get it on your CV but don't stay too long or your mental health will suffer

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.
