Bronto Software reviews

The two founders are still there and still run the company like it is their personal club. They don't have the experience or the sense to run a real business, so they focus on things like silly company games, office expansion and marketing events. They lump all this under "culture." Meanwhile they pay below market wages, skimp on bonuses, have bare minimum benefits and generally try and extort as much as possible from their employees. They hire generally incompetent managers who can't lead, but instead just rah-rah everything the founders do or say. Even though they claim they are a start up, you will find more money in the cushions of your couch than you'll get from the equity that they hand out. The greatest farce is the travel policy of sharing hotel rooms and the red eye requirement, so the best thing to do is just avoid travel at all costs. They cover up the awful environment by forcing employees to say nice things about the company: forced voting in the Best Places to Work survey and I'm sure several of the reviews on this site. They also hire young, inexperienced people who don't know any better, they get a few years from the good ones before they figure it out and leave. The bad ones stay, especially if they rah-rah the founders silly actions.

Constantly screwing employees out of money Bonuses consistently funded around 50% Meager raises which immediately vanish if any other compensation adjustment is made
