Pros

There are so many great things about working at BambooHR that it's hard to know where to start. 1. Culture: We take great pains to ensure that we only hire people who fit the culture. We want to hire those who are hard-working, humble, have great personalities, and are willing to put in the work. 2. Work/Life Balance: This is so important because I've never had it anywhere else. Other company's I've worked for were always talking about it, but I never really got a sense of it or saw it in any way. At BambooHR, they are serious. It's not about trying to get out of paying someone overtime, it's about letting employees go home to be with their families without having work interfere. Leave work at work and go home. 3. Our Owners: I've never worked for a company where the owners actually care to learn the name of all their employees, let along try to interact with them all. At BambooHR our owners are the most accessable peoople. They are there if you want to bounce an idea off of them, or ask them a question about something. The know everyone's name and take care to know specific things about them. You are never just a number. I could go on and on about the amazing things that happen at BambooHR, but to wrap up I would say that they have truely ruined me for other companies because they are simply amazing in how they treat their employees.

Cons

We are still growing so figuring out processes and getting those implemented is sometimes a challenge, though not an unexpected one. At times, some of those who have been here the longest are resistant to change, but overall they all want what is best for the company. Our health plan could be better, but the one we have isn't horrible. I've definitely had worse.

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.
