Pros

Every employee at Bumble has a voice -- whether you've been at the company for three years or you're an intern who just started -- your opinion matters and your ideas are valued. Everyone has the opportunity to make a direct impact on the business. Management and executives are really great at acknowledging the hard work of their employees and really try to set everyone up for success. They are also able to recognize their employees' strength and allow them to move and grow within the company. My colleagues are kind, fun, and incredibly intelligent and it's been a pleasure to learn from them. The office is beautiful and centrally located. It's exciting to come to work every day! Everyone is really passionate about what the company stands for and really adheres to the company's core values of kindness, equality, and respect.

Cons

The company is growing really fast so we're quickly outgrowing our office. Parking and finding a quiet space to work in the office can be challenging at times.

Hi, Sweet Bee - We appreciate your feedback here! We are so happy that you have felt your voice is heard here; it is so important for our team to take advantage of the amazing, innovative, and impactful viewpoints of everyone in the Hive :) Thank you for flagging the parking and quiet spaces at HQ. We are diligently working on expanding the office and creating more quiet workspaces for the team, along with addressing our parking woes (one of the common challenges for companies in Austin!). Our recent team-wide Commuter Survey will help to inform some of these solutions. Thanks again for your review, Honey!

Thank you for your feedback. We are so sorry that you feel this way and we would like to hear more about your experience. Please reach out to honey@team.bumble.com so we can learn more. Our ambassador program is one of the things that makes Bumble so special and we try to share this appreciation through feedback sessions and weekly calls, along with perks, trips, and program-wide shout outs. As contractors, all participants are given the exact run dates of their contracts and we work closely alongside our ambassador teams to ensure expectations are met during their time with us. If it may not be a match after we start working together, we always have an open conversation to find the best path forward. When it is a strong match, we are able to hire ambassadors as employees, including 2 in the US, 1 in Canada, 2 in the UK, 1 in the Netherlands and 1 in India. As much as we’d like to, we cannot not hire everyone. That’d be thousands of new employees every year! Our field marketing team stays connected to ambassadors for future opportunities both as employees or for other contract roles in our Queen Bee post-graduate program. One of our company values is growth, which means that scaling our ambassador program across college campuses (and the world!) is pivotal to us achieving our vision of ending misogyny globally. By reaching new communities, we have been able to bring different backgrounds and perspectives into our Hive. We are committed to diverse and inclusive practices in our ambassador program as we are in our workplace and on our app. Thank you again for your efforts spreading our values as an ambassador of Bumble. We are so appreciative of our Honeys and Queen Bees that are making moves across the globe, helping us to shake up outdated gender norms and create authentic relationships!
