Pros

The company does seem to care about its employees (outside of the sales org). Benefits are good. In sales specifically, the training was great. If you have the right manager, who has been successful at Bamboo, you can learn a lot about tech sales. It’s a good option for someone who wants to spend 6 months getting their foot in the door in tech. My time here has made me a better salesperson.

Cons

In sales, the turnover is remarkable at Bamboo. Top reps are leaving for fair pay and goals are so unrealistic that 2 unlucky weeks will have you sweating for your job. My team specifically made an outside hire for manager who came in with little experience and made no effort to learn our software or sales processes. We lost 9 team members (8 quits) in the managers first 9 months without a single promotion. Meanwhile, we did not hear a word from management asking if we were okay or why so many reps would be leaving. They do not care. Bamboo does a great job at convincing reps to come here and spend a couple of months before they realize they were bamboozled. Management isn’t worried about losing you, or an entire team for that matter because the recruiters are proactively misleading dozens of future candidates with unreachable OTEs, “company culture”, and a promise of a fast promotion.

Pros

Working for a company that cares about you as a person, not just their employee. Benefits are good, paid paid is amazing too. I love the openness of everyone who works here. Working from home and having the option to go into the office is great.

Cons

The main UT office is in Lindon ( far away from me)
