Pros

Paid Vacations. Good PTO. Cool Office.

Cons

The company refuses to do hands on trainings and you have to take test after test. There is no room for error or growth. They are very hard on their employees and the management is terrifying.

Thank you for your comment. While learning new software, systems, and a new role can be difficult, our main goal is to help our employees grow from good to great. The training offered varies from department to department and is based on the software and systems each employee needs to learn for their role. Dedicated trainers and managers are heavily involved in the training provided to ensure that each new hire can successfully perform their role following their training period. We are disappointed to hear that your experience did not meet your expectations and sincerely wish you the very best.

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.
