Pros

The product is great and so are the people. There’s a gas station close I guess. That’s a nice way to take a 5 minute break.

Cons

Culture is clock in/clock out. Mentality is that you come in, work your 40 hours and leave. If you come in late, expect to stay late. Good news for sales is that on the last day of the month on a Friday and you’re over your number- you get to go home early. Assuming you got your 8 hours in for the day that is. Bamboo gets you to work harder without all the perks. Management has convinced employees that other companies who offer fun perks, expect you to work more than 40 hours/week. That’s not the case. Sales floor is a call center with monthly quotas, several pep talks and constant feedback.

Pros

At the end of my tenure, I really have no pros.

Cons

I'm pretty sure I was "quietly laid off", in the effort of sneaky downsizing without having to actually do formal layoffs. This place was a godsend and a great place to work on my small independent team, and I did great. Then they did massive restructuring, added layers of hierarchy, added process, and basically just starting running a creative team like a line of factory workers. I had a horrible time with my manager on so many different levels, and felt validation when others would reflect the same, but I reflect what everyone else says - narcissistic, micro managing leadership that I now understand play manipulation games. I was put on a performance improvement plan and finally quit due to burnout, stress, and the dissolution of a role and a team that I had from before. They constantly push for solutions and deliverables, but I never really saw anything I delivered actually get treated and implemented with respect. Company policies and siloed team policies and procedures stymie actual effectiveness, and it seems like the leadership acts as your strict grade school teacher rather than having your back.
