Pros

The company is expanding rapidly and it's easy to be hired compared to Big 4's. Brand name. As soon as on boarding is completed Indian employees are able to work with the US counterparts.

Cons

Not a pay leader as the management claims, typically pay 30 to 40 less than Big 4's and other smaller offshoring entities. Poor quality work is outsourced to India and most of the high value work is retained in the US. Big promises are made while hiring people from Big 4's, in terms on increment and bonus, however every appraisal employees are reminded that they were already hired at an increased salary from their previous employer and if an employee joins from Big 4 they might feel they have seen an increased package but it will soon get normalized and they will fall behind shortly afterwards. Poor IT infrastructure with really cheap laptops provided and employees are mostly forced to work on virtual machines which have several issues of their own. Work flow management is poor, in a month certain days employees will be expected to work 14 plus hours and then within the same week employees will be unassigned the entire day.

Pros

There actually are great people, but you play manager roulette.

Cons

BDO is notorious for promoting people who just never leave. The middle of the road, not great, not awful, people get promoted over and over again. There have been changes every 3 seconds since the ESOP. Terrible communication around change (non-existent). My manager's favorite term was "We are building the plane as we fly it". After 4 years, I was hoping to have more plane built. It was never built.
