Pros

You have an opportunity here to be exposed to a lot of different technologies and user environments. The company has grown rapidly since I started a few years ago and the management seems to really drive and reinforce that growth. I’ve never heard of the company doing any type of layoffs. There is a lot of focus on Team Work. Management likes to reward employees by organizing a lot of fun expensive outing and get together. We have happy hour every Friday with Bags and Beverages.

Cons

Although there is a huge emphasis on work-life balance, you will be busy the whole time you are at work. Right now we are a little cramped because of the growth we have been experiencing. The new office space is still under construction.

Pros

BDO International is having its presence at the world level across all the major countries where one would like to work. Hence choosing BDO International was easy as would give me a global exposure in my professional life.

Cons

The Ahmedabad office specifically has one of the worst Managers and the Associate Directors. The icing on the cake is the pathetic HR department located at Mumbai HO which always gives vague answers to keep the employees at other branches in utter confusions. The highest level politics is clearly visible at least in Ahmedabad office. The Managers and Associate Directors do not have personal life of their own and they expect all the subordinates to work as per their timings which goes into more than 12 hours on an everyday basis. Hence a person working at Ahmedabad office spends half of his day at office only to see his seniors smoke and talk about various issues which the person might not be interested in which in turn means zero personal and social life of all the subordinates working under such seniors perople.

Pros

It was a great resume filler. People respect the company name more than they should really. That's the only Pro.

Cons

They work you ridiculously long hours on salary. Pay raises and reviews never come when they say they will. They will take advantage until the day you wise up and run.
