      Pros

      • Strong exposure to practice-specific engagements early on • S. Associates and Managers are generally very willing to teach and explain the work • Good opportunity to build financial modeling and liquidity analysis skills • Lean teams mean interns and junior staff can contribute meaningfully to client work • Collaborative culture within the group I've worked in

      Cons

      • Hours can become unpredictable during live engagements or tight deliverable timelines • As a large firm, some internal processes and approvals can be slow • Work can sometimes be repetitive when updating models or preparing materials • Limited visibility into certain senior-level client discussions early on

      Pros

      Compensation is OK. There are some really nice people in the organization to work with, but you have to find them.

      Cons

      If you are not part of the SWC "club" (company name prior to them joining BDO), good luck. Poor leadership!!! Practice lead talks to everyone like they are talking to a CEO, not relatable in most cases. No clear employee development plans. You are held accountable for things completely outside of your individual control. They stress incorporating AI into work strategy, but have no plan on what that looks like or how to do it and want everyone to formulate it because leadership has no roadmap. One has no control over where you want to take your career, yet you are expected to know everything, about everything. As a result, you become an expert of nothing! Work assigned rarely leverages skills, almost as if they throw darts to see who works on what.
