Discrimination! 👎

Pros

None, I fought discrimination for multiple years here for not fitting the company’s stereotypes.

Cons

Discrimination and manager that personally looked for anything to fire me over multiple years. Stress was not worth it. Miscommunication even when made right, is a bad mark on your record for all time.

Thank you for sharing your experience. We take concerns about fairness and discrimination very seriously at BambooHR. Whenever a concern is raised, we open a formal review, investigate thoroughly, and close the loop directly with the team member involved. While your experience does not reflect the environment we strive for, our annual Great Place to Work results indicate strong confidence in fairness: 96% of team members feel treated fairly regardless of race or sexual orientation, 95% regardless of age, and 93% regardless of gender. These scores surpass the national benchmark of 91% for justice among the top 100 U.S. workplaces. If you have additional information that was not previously shared, please reach out to our HR team so we can better understand your experience. Thanks, Jonathan Vaas, Head of Legal and HR

Pros

- Product is fantastic. Sells itself half the time, great brand recognition and reputation - People are fantastic. One of the best office environments I have been in, very fun and encouraging people to be around - Other people are genuinely cheering for you, people want to see others win - Great flexibility and overall work/life balance if you can get a good process down - Fantastic benefits and a cool office - Leadership has shown that they are willing to change and pivot (it make take a while, but at least it happens)

Cons

- Pay is low compared to the industry and they are asking more of reps without increasing pay or changing comp - Success is VERY manager dependent. If you have a good manager who cares, you will kill it. If you have an external hire who isn't up to speed, prepare for a crash landing. - Communication between orgs is severely lacking - SDRs are god. Any dispute with an SDR you can guarantee you will lose. Don't even bother - Heavy LDS influence on culture (not necessarily a con, but not a pro)
