Yes it's not perfect and if you use it and let your devices to go to sleep rather than power off you are vulnerable to various memory access and coldboot attacks.
However with TPM/USB Storage for the keys, with secure boot enabled Bitlocker offers one of the better data encryption capabilities out there.
Yes MSFT might have backdoored it, TPM is an oxymoron and all that might be true. However if the only thing you are worried about is what happens to your data if your device gets lost or stolen you are probably more than fine with using this setup.
If you are worried about the NSA having your files well then probably there isn't much you can do about it if they want them they'll get them. Whether its by backdooring your OS, internet connection, or by sending intelligence support activity assets to your home to tap into it while you sleep :)
