Pros
Good product for those who are ok giving business to a company that chews and spits out it's workers.
Cons
During onboarding you'll learn about how the company values are essential to success and a cornerstone of day to day work. You'll be enticed, happy, and ready to contribute to that promised culture. You'll think you finally found a company that values you as a person rather than just a cog. Guess again, this company DOES NOT care about you - don't listen to what they SAY, watch what they DO. Actions speak louder than words in every facet of life, and BambooHR killed their culture in one fell swoop on Feb 3, 2023. The top performers who went above and beyond every day have updated resumes and are no longer motivated because they no longer trust the company. I am not exaggerating - every. single. top. performer. On Friday afternoon right before sending us off for our weekend (no coincidence on the timing there!), they called this presentation and led off with "good news, you guys are getting a raise! This is a great opportunity!" and then proceeded to inform us that quota had been skyrocketed, pay was actually DECREASED, and 95% of the floor is now set up for failure. Anyone with knowledge of 3rd grade math can do simple calculations that show our pay was reduced, which isn't nearly as bad as the mind-numbingly pandering way in which it what presented as a positive change. I've heard people on the floor have actually broken down the numbers and presented it to higher-ups to show that we're not nearly as stupid as they think. They won't change anything though. They'll just hire new SDRs - THEY EVEN SAID SO!! If you want to work for a company that preaches high values, but acts on the polar opposite side of the spectrum, come to Bamboo, they're as performative as it gets. They truly expect you to hit unobtainable numbers, get paid below average for it, and keep your mouth shut. During the early stages of my tenure I saw myself making a career at BambooHR and never leaving. I was so motivated to do what's right for the company because I was happy and was lulled into a false sense of value. Now, I don't care at all what happens to the company, I'll clock in until I find something better and then I'll leave, because that's what they do to my lesser-performing colleagues, and to be honest I'm very upset that I've lost passion for this job. They'll spit me and out the moment it benefits them financially, and then they'll wonder why all top performers lost their drive. IMPORTANT ADVICE: If you're reading these reviews while considering sales positions at BambooHR, only read reviews starting on February 3rd 2023 (and watch out for non-sales managers sending through 5 star ratings to hide the truth). This is what the current company looks like, this is the current atmosphere. Feb 3rd is the day they took the axe to their values, implemented massive changes, initiated them immediately (and retroactively!!!!), and destroyed the mindset of the entire SDR and AE floors. Never in my life have I been treated like a dumber human than I was on February 3rd and there is no coming back from that presentation, although I'm sure they'll use their empty words to try without any corresponding action.
