Pros

Awesome group of people and positive company culture. Managers are understanding and personable -- plus their benefits are amazing!

Cons

They weren't super transparent about how long training would be and it resulted in confused groups of new hires, including myself. Other than that, fantastic thorough training.

We're glad to hear more about your experience at BambooHR. Thank you for the time you spent here and for choosing to be a part of our company and culture. It sounds like you really enjoyed working with the people on your team. We're really glad to hear that! We also try to be very thoughtful with the benefits that we offer so we're glad to hear that they were meaningful to you. Thank you for your feedback about training as well. We really care about employees and their success, and want to ensure that they are well equipped to be successful as they move forward in their roles. We also love our clients and want to give them the best experience possible with our customer facing teams. In pursuit of these things we have a pretty robust training process that is designed to accommodate different learning styles and speeds. Thus, training can last different lengths of time for different people. We do, however, try to ensure that constant communication is happening between our training team and new hires, so that they know where they are at with their performance and in training progression. If you would like to share more feedback we would be happy to hear from you. If you'd like, feel free to follow the link to fill out a quick survey. http://bit.ly/2P9iSv7 Thanks again!

Pros

There are so many good things about this company. The benefits, the culture, the CEO/leadership. Honestly it's the best company I've ever worked for in my professional career.

Cons

The Cons? Maybe that everyone is too nice. I only say that because sometimes when something needs to be said, nobody wants to say it because they are just too nice. That being said, even this has been realized and is being worked on.

Thank you for sharing that because it helps us to know where we can improve and become better. If you'd like to share more feedback, we would be happy to hear it.

Pros

One of Bamboo's strengths is their commitment to a good work/life balance. There is no pressure to stay late and when you need to take care of family matters they are flexible and let you do what you need to do. My job is clearly defined and I am given the autonomy to take risks and do my best work. We have a world class marketing team that is very progressive and is doing awesome stuff.

Cons

Bamboo is a little stingy with their money when it comes to expenses that are not directly related to business processes. Teams don't have learning budgets and we pay for our own team parties and team building activities.
