BambooHR is by far, the best company I've worked for!

Pros

The PEOPLE! I love being surrounded by absolute rock stars in their respective fields. It's great to love the people, love the culture, and love the product and service we provide. We're making a big difference in our effort of freeing people to do great work. The two co-founders are some of the best people I know and I've learned so much from working with them. I also love the work-life balance at BambooHR and that family time is valued so much. What other company offers paid, paid vacations (paid time off AND reimbursed vacation expenses) each year? They put their money where their mouth is when it comes to values and culture. This is by far, the best company I've personally worked for.

Cons

Growing pains, which isn't necessarily a bad thing.

Pros

BambooHR has the best work life balance of any job I have ever worked.. ever! They there are about 15 paid holidays per year, as well as plenty of personal time as needed. The pay is really good, and the commissions are excellent if you work hard! There is a very open company culture with little to zero office politics. Everyone is nice to work with, and willing to help out where they can.

Cons

Health insurance isn't too great right now, but I suspect that has more to do with the ACA than internal policies. I think this will improve in the coming year.

Pros

The company is a rocketship taking off and it's a fun ride. There are so many opportunities to grow and learn personally and professionally. The founders truly care about our personal lives and create a culture that reflects that. The company values include things like "do what's right for the right reason" and "assume the best" so that we are all working toward big goals without the infighting or competition that you find at many organizations. It's a wonderful place to work!

Cons

Truly, this is a great place to work. The only con I have is that it is an open layout so it can sometimes be difficult to concentrate, but there are solutions around that.
