      Thank you for taking the time to share your view. I think it takes a while to really have the skills to perform senior responsibilities but agree that we give responsibiity quickly as your skills develop. I agree it's a great place to start but also a great place to stay! Let us know what we can do to support that goal!

      Not a good experience

      Pros

      There is not a lot of pros to working at BDO, I would suggest working at a different firm, see below for reasons.

      Cons

      Do you want to be treated like you are working at a big 4 and also do the hours of a big 4 but then not have that on your resume, then BDO is for you! Here in the Houston office, there are staff auditors that are working 85 hours a week. It is pretty typical to work a nice 70 hour week and then have a manager who keeps asking about stuff. My firm was originally UHY and got bought out by BOD at the end of 2014. For UHY I would probably leave a 4 star review. However, when BDO showed up the first day of January, they pretty much immediately left a bad taste in everybody's mouth including even partners. Nobody in the Houston office is happy and emphatically and universally hate BDO. I would never suggest anybody work here.

      Here's an idea....you see a problem? Be part of a solution. Speak to your managing partner or speak to me., but speak.
