Bandwidth reviews

David Morken is a poor leader. He forced the staff back to the office with ZERO mask mandate, no query into vaccination statuses, and no tracking. If someone tries to speak up or vice concerns they are told to “Stand down” as if they were an enemy army. All he cares about is the perception of culture but Bandwidth has none. All they do is force people into an unsafe office because they’re an “in person” culture (which is a meaningless statement). People are leaving left and right. The pay is very low, only directors and above get any kind of bonus, there’s no ESPP, and zero flexibility for remote work. This place is a full on catastrophe disguised in a cult like sphere of happiness. Run away.

A few climbers in middle management who have no idea how to speak to people. I remember my introduction to one of them. I had scheduled a call with a massive client and this manager was going to conduct the call. The manger was about 7 minutes late to the room we were having the call in. So I'm stalling for him and when he arrives he grabs my lap top out of my lap and starts talking to the prospect immediately. He conducts the entire call with my computer that I was planning on using to take notes. Then at the end he hands me my computer back and walks out of the room without saying a word to me. A few months later they laid off my manager (Who was 8 months pregnant) and that same guy became my manager. The low pay and bible thumping was already annoying. The combo of that guy becoming my manager and the CEO not respecting employees enough to take Covid seriously meant I was otw out. He literally would not allow masks in the office for the first few months because he didn't want to "give people in the office anxiety." I have a spouse with a health condition that puts her even more at risk. The day I quit I wore a mask in the office and on my exit interview the HR lady interviewing me sat at the opposite end of the table. She was a cancer survivor who still hadn't gotten her hair back and I could tell she was nervous. Seeing my former co-workers lying on LinkedIn about how excited they are to be in the office 5 days a week just makes me sad.
