Pros

BambooHR is the most wonderful company. I've been here for almost a year, and I can't say enough good. The executives (from the marketing department all the way to the co-founders) are humble, thoughtful, and devoted to building a great place to work. They consistently focus on the customer experience, which makes me proud to promote their product. I can say that I feel set free to do work the best way that I can. I feel safe to learn and make mistakes, and try new things, which is vital to innovation. I'm so grateful to work here, it's been my dream company from day 1.

Cons

Honestly, I don't have any cons. If there is anything I could say, it's that the company is still growing and learning. With that, there are learning curves, but I feel they've taken feedback so well and are growing in a great way.

Pros

I’ve worked at dozens of companies and can confidently say that the people are what makes this organization great! Employees believe in and practice each value. Collaboration is constantly taking place and it’s a pretty uplifting atmosphere to work in. The benefits are also unique and well thought out. The HR team does a solid job at researching what’s best and making it happen for each employee. The product is nearly flawless. Love what the developers have created. With the recent acquisition, I have no doubt that the organization will continue to sell sell sell. I just hope the customers remain happy if the employees are not.

Cons

I always knew growing pains were a struggle for Bamboo but when they hired an executive for the marketing team, it all went downhill. Most marketing employees are no longer happy and everything is being changed due to this leadership change. Ben, Ryan & Kent are absolutely wonderful but are more hands-off than they were a couple years ago. They’re the three who truly want to keep the culture alive but have allowed others to completely rule that.

Thanks for being part of the Bamboo team for so many years. It sounds like you really enjoyed your co-workers and the culture we strive to live. Thank you for sharing your concern about how we listen to employees. Using eNPS is one of several ways that we gather feedback from employees on what is going well and areas for potential change, and we're sorry if you got the impression that we don't take it seriously. As for individual Bambooligans, we believe in growing people. That includes everyone from the newest hires to members of the executive team. Every Bambooligan is encouraged and coached to grow from good to great, and the reality is, that takes support and time. We strive to create a safe space where individuals can get and give direct feedback from all levels and it’s critical that everyone encourages and supports the process of growth and change.
