Pros

Only positive is the relaxed work culture

Kontras

So BD is basically a scam company that lays off US employees and hires cheap labor from India. Here's how the scam works: during the financial year end (around Jun-Aug), upper management lays off a certain percentage of the US workforce. This is just before their yearly numbers are made public. So they show their investors they have cut costs and are doing great. The execs cut themselves a nice big bonus cheque. The work gets divided among remaining employees without any pay hike. Next, around Sep-Nov, they list out job postings for their India location. Though only a few openings are available, they'll review hundreds of candidates. This way, the whole interview and onboarding process stretches for 3-4 months. The selected candidate gets his/her offer around late Nov or Dec (note that by this time, the new FY has already started in the US). They will also make sure low-ball as much as possible (they will literally bargain till a few thousand rupees of the offer they make). At the time of offer discussion, they promise a hike of 10% and a bonus amount. But when the time comes for this new joiner (who could only join in Dec due to the politics) to have his/her appraisal, they say he/she has not been working for a full FY, so they will not give the full bonus or the promised hike. Any decent, self-respecting employee then decides to leave. And the cycle continues. So if you're considering applying here, beware. Please don't waste your time at this SCAM company!

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.

Kontras

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.
