Pros

None. Low pay is not competitive with the market and the sales culture is not healthy. Forcing people to come back to the office and disregarding COVID is disappointing.

Cons

Sales culture is not healthy. Forcing people to come back to the office and disregarding COVID is disappointing. They're a family culture yet aren't flexible for the needs of their employees.

Sorry to hear your experience was not positive. We believe in-person when people are together is when the best innovation happens. At the same time, our leaders have always been empowered to make exceptions for special circumstances and to provide flexibility to our Bandmates and their families.

Pros

Coworkers are nice. I guess.

Cons

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.

The safety and peace of mind of our Bandmates is a priority -- while we have a preference for the collaboration and innovation that comes from in-person work, team members have always had the flexibility to accommodate special situations. Additionally, while mask mandates are in place, anyone at any of our locations may choose to work remotely. In these unprecedented times, we continue to focus on our unique culture and Whole Person Promise of meaningful work plus a full life. We hope you'll reach out to People Services with your feedback.

Pros

The people I've worked with over the years who are on the lower rungs of the corporate ladder are some of the best people I've ever met. Before COVID, the vibe at the office was top-notch and we continued to have a lively community online when we all went home due to the pandemic. Devs at Bandwidth don't work excessive hours, that's a good thing too. I like the health insurance.

Cons

I originally typed out a novel to put here but even with this being anonymous, it makes me nervous to be too vocal with criticism. Stay away if you have self-respect as a professional and a human being and don't want to catch COVID, that's all I am going to say.
