Ditto.
BAEN has a reputation for preferentially publishing a certain breed of SF, favoring action-adventure SF ranging from technothrillers to military SF and space opera, with clear libertarian leanings. What some might call the Heinlein School of SF.
(No surprise they are in the process of republishing the Heinlein catalog in ebook form.)

However, there are plenty of SF&F readers who refuse to even look at BAEN precisely because of that reputation.

Tastes vary.
All that matters is figuring out what you like and where to get it.
