Pros

I love working for a company that values my career growth, happiness, and ability to have a personal life. People all over the organization (CEO to HR to my manager) work with me to accomplish career goals and grow. They offer a lot of great benefits (like paid paid vacation and financial education), but what it's all centered around is helping people be balanced in all aspects of their lives. It's rare to find an employer who actually values that.

Cons

No company is perfect. There are growing pains and misunderstandings. What's unique about Bamboo is that everyone is encouraged to voice their suggestions or struggles and management actually cares about fixing the problems. Sure, sometimes fixes aren't immediate, but concerns are always addressed and everyone is genuinely doing the best they can.

Pros

The leadership team is amazing. Executives care so much about ALL employees personally. Culture is a top priority, which makes for an amazing work place. I have had the opportunity to work closely with the founders and they truly have the employee's best interest at heart. At BambooHR, it is a full team effort. I feel so valued, trusted, appreciated, and important at BambooHR. It's also nice to trust management and the decisions they make for this company. I know that they care so deeply about the people and organization and make well thought out choices. BambooHR has been more than encouraging of my work-life balance. They are extremely flexible and even let me work from home now that I am a mother. Best of both worlds.

Cons

None, It really is the best place I have ever worked. BambooHR has a culture of improvement though. If I had something negative, I know it would be heard.

Pros

Let me start off by saying no company is 100 percent perfect... I've worked in sales for a number of years and definitely know that. With that said, I would finish my selling career here. I honestly don't know why others leave comments saying that management doesn't have our best interest in place... We all just got significant raises in base that makes us highly competitive pay wise... That comment about an executive couldn't be more of a joke. Happenstance that executives knew me by name on my second day? Don't think so! Not to mention the fact that we're making changes that massive inside sales companies have made TO SELL MORE. There's always going to be those lazier people that are always upset about change... If you work hard, it shows here. Very satisfied with what I've been able to produce. Company outlook looks phenomenal, unfortunately there's a lot of current positivities that are happening here and I obviously can't share them (oh yeah the company is completely transparent (how I know things as an AE)). You'll eventually see on the news 😂. Big things happening. All in all, the culture speaks for itself. If I want to have a discussion with one of the founders, it's done. They've dropped everything they're doing to have a far less important conversation with me. My manager has turned into a good friend and is always a resource and never mircromanaging or a burden. I'm learning a ton and look forward to all the learning here. They're highly selective with who they hire and it shows. Phenomenal individuals, I know I've already established life long friends with the people that I'm working with. It honestly doesn't feel like work sometimes. It helps that I like a grind but still, I've gotten tired of a lot of sales positions on the past. If you're thinking about applying here, do it. See for yourself. You don't have anything to lose other than signing on with the top company to work for in Utah. 😂 Guarantee you'll be greeted by a ton of friendly faces that are more than willing to help you out (and trust me, we haven't been told to do so). No I'm not in management, no I wasn't told to write this, but yes I'm a massive fan of BambooHR. Very little compares to it and consider myself so lucky to work here.

Cons

Usual growing pains of any quickly progressing SAAS company? It'll happen at any good company you go to though... I've seen some electronically raising and lowering desks, maybe give those out to everyone in the new building?
