Pros

- Product is fantastic. Sells itself half the time, great brand recognition and reputation - People are fantastic. One of the best office environments I have been in, very fun and encouraging people to be around - Other people are genuinely cheering for you, people want to see others win - Great flexibility and overall work/life balance if you can get a good process down - Fantastic benefits and a cool office - Leadership has shown that they are willing to change and pivot (it make take a while, but at least it happens)

Cons

- Pay is low compared to the industry and they are asking more of reps without increasing pay or changing comp - Success is VERY manager dependent. If you have a good manager who cares, you will kill it. If you have an external hire who isn't up to speed, prepare for a crash landing. - Communication between orgs is severely lacking - SDRs are god. Any dispute with an SDR you can guarantee you will lose. Don't even bother - Heavy LDS influence on culture (not necessarily a con, but not a pro)

Pros

If you find the right pockets of culture and leadership, you will LOVE it at Bamboo. The Marketing, Technology, HR, and Finance organizations have fantastic leaders who truly care about their employees. There are many opportunities to grow within these departments and career paths are clearly defined. Pay is not great, but the benefits are amazing.

Cons

There are SO many snakes in the grass here. Especially within the CX and Sales organizations. CX and Sales leaders are always looking for ways to hurt each other and they do - frequently. The organization is is going through a big growth phase, but it means that the pressure is INSANE right now. There are too many projects happening at once and no one cares about how it affects other areas of the org.
