Pros

BambooHR is a incredible place to work. Benefits like the paid paid vacation and the work life Balance really do make a difference. The company size has doubled since I was hired. The work space is getting a little tight but we should be moving into a new building soon. No cold calls ever. Most of my appointments are set for me. My favorite part is most of the leads we get know someone who is uses BambooHR and it was organically referred. Makes my job a lot easier because we have an amazing product. They also adjust quota if you take a vacation which is awesome.

Cons

The monthly quota can be a killer some months and I've lost sleep over it. I wish it was quarterly. Company is growing really fast and the changes are rapid. New products launching, pricing changes, changes to the commission structure, lead distribution changes. The commissions can be volatile however you have the potential to make over six figures which several reps are doing. Yes there are a lot of growing pains in sales and I wish they would respond quicker to the issues but overall it's a great place to work.

Pros

If you’re complacent with being told what to do and are OK with the pay, you will be OK working here

Cons

There might not be enough space for what I have to say. Management is full of narcissist. Little to no accountability or responsibility from management. Management job is supposed to be helping the team and supporting them and learning the job which they extremely lack in. If you are OK with having someone tell you how to do your job that doesn’t know how to do your job then, you’re in luck. When the team was failing to hit quota, their solution was to keep it the same while calling the BDR‘s complacent. Management also failed to recognize that reps were obtaining quota only through going to events. A work colleague of mine gave feedback in a meeting and was later criticized for providing feedback. After that meeting, he was told not to speak up in a meeting like that. Yet they say they welcome feedback. Management finds time to do things that don’t benefit the team or add extra task to their plate. The organization also loves pointless meetings that can be summarized in two short sentences. My last piece is that the team has a mutual feeling about management and suckers up to them because they are playing the . Bamboo fails to recognize their weaknesses and if they managed to succeed, I would be impressed with how it’s been ran.
