The cars are dirty and smelly. The upholstery you sit on is gross. Once in a while you will find human feces in the cars. Most BART stations do not even have restrooms, water fountains etc, so I hope you don't have any human needs.
The trains do not run often during the day. If you miss one, have fun waiting 20-40 minutes for the next one. They stop at midnight.
It takes a long time to get to your destination, and the destinations available are not a very large subset of where you actually want to go. Most of the time you will have to chain together another form of public transport on one or both ends, and the transfer time between different forms of transport is often long and pads out the length of a commute tremendously.
The stations and trains are unsafe, and people get attacked on them with some regularity.
On top of all these things, BART is very expensive!
I don't know how you could think BART was good unless you had never used any other comparable transport system.
