The firm, overall, is very supportive and diverse. I honestly looked forward to coming in each day to a new challenge. I can also say that there is a genuine work- life balance. I highly recommend BDO.

Didn't enjoy consulting

Indirect Tax Consultant (Former Employee) - Perth WA - 10 February 2017

Public practice is not for me. I did not enjoy the consulting side of accounting. I am definitely a more numbers minded person. Also, I was pigeonholed into GST consulting straight away given my Law background.

Pros

Young and fun workplace

Cons

Not the accounting I enjoy

lack of training

EA to Bus. Recovery & Insolv (Former Employee) - Adelaide SA - 25 August 2016

No training provided or support when asked. Very 'stuffy' culture and a very high turn around of staff. Managers weren't very nice to work for, however the support staff were ok

Executive Assistant (Former Employee) - Brisbane, QLD - 29 June 2015

It's an OK place to work providing you're in a clique. If not it's not nice. Management don't want to rock the boat with those who have been there longer than others and tend not to be interested providing the work gets done.

Nice trucks falls down in management

OWNER DRIVER STEVE BIRD TRANSPORT (Former Employee) - Epping, Melbourne - 16 June 2015

Good work, very demanding with timeslots at all times in the morn. Some work very monotonous, but overall a fun place to work. The other drivers (bar a couple) made the job more fun.

Pros

good xmas parties

Cons

Very long hours

Great People. Excellent exposure.

Assistant Manager (Current Employee) - Melbourne, VIC - 25 January 2014

While there are many challenges posed at the company, hard work and dedication prevailed to achieve success on all projects.

A strong involvement from management ensured we drive our staff to perform well.

However with a high turnover of staff and a fast growing business, many restrictions are placed on management to achieve our objectives.
A recent massive increase in workload has also necessitated incredibly long hours at management level.
