Smaller firm that allows for more exposure at the earlier stages of employment.

Desvantagens

BDO is rapidly growing and have failed to realize that staff retention is important. The focus is evidently on hiring then comes the lack of supervision, poor training, and unprofessional culture.

Conselho à presidência
