Pros

BambooHR gave me my first real-world taste of SaaS sales, and I learned more than I ever expected. The SDR training program covered outbound prospecting, cold calling, and how to run consultative discovery conversations. Culture-wise, the company truly cares about its people, and I worked with some amazing peers and managers who wanted to help me succeed. I appreciated how the team prioritized growth and was open to feedback from reps.

Cons

During my time there, leadership was going through changes and trying to figure out what success looked like in the SDR org. The management structure felt inconsistent across the SDR org—some managers had clear expectations, while others operated with different standards. There was no unified or clearly communicated benchmark for what quota attainment meant across the team. This created confusion around performance expectations. Reps often felt frustrated when technical issues interfered with call performance or meeting sets, especially when those situations weren’t acknowledged or accounted for in performance evaluations. It created a sense of being unsupported during moments that were out of our control.

Pros

-Culture -Onboarding The coworkers were great and the onboarding was smooth with lots of training!

Cons

The position was not for me due to the required metrics of solving a certain number of cases each week and having that "go-go" mindset. The pay was not worth the stress for me.
