Pros

Wonderful team members, workload can be grueling at times. Salary is comparable to industry measures. Health insurance have three options that could be better with the amount of employees on staff.

Cons

No bonus,,,,unless you are part of upper management. At time of salary negotiation , BD will offer this as a possibility as well as yearly salary increase however that will never happen for numerous reasons. During yearly reviews-you have to complete self assessment and provide reasons why you should be considered for raise. This is acceptable IF salary increase is even a true option but it is not. So although you work hard all year for a company that promises growth, in the end you are forever trying to prove your worth but instead you are only filling a position until you cannot take it anymore

Pros

There really aren't any. Incredibly toxic culture all the way down. BD used to be a great and supportive place to work but that is no more.

Cons

Very toxic culture. Management all the way down is either abusive or or flat out incompetent. We are told to essentially ignore our own code of conduct policies and ethics to the point where all qualified and competent performers have been run off by tyrant middle managers who can essentially do whatever they want or being saddled with the work of 3 people. You will not be valued here. The morale is at bottom and everyone is looking to leave the sinking ship.
