Pros

They are very strict about only working 40 hours per week.

Cons

No commissions. They put sales sales staff on "weeklong" performance plans AKA you have ONE WEEK to improve or else they'll fire you. I'm looking for a new job ASAP in case I have a bad month this month.

BambooHR Response

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We continually ask for open communication and feedback so we encourage you to be open internally with your manager as well. Performance development in sales and at BambooHR is actually different than described. Our employees have one on ones with their manager every week so they should always know how they're doing and where their performance is at. In sales, if someone is consistently not performing well, we will be open with them about what performance metrics need to be met and by which deadlines. We want our people to be successful and that is always our focus so we have a lot of resources to help in that effort. We have a different compensation structure than many other companies but consistently do market research to make sure that we're compensating our people fairly. Thanks again for sharing your feedback and we hope that you're able to have a great experience here.

Pros

If you’re complacent with being told what to do and are OK with the pay, you will be OK working here

Cons

There might not be enough space for what I have to say. Management is full of narcissist. Little to no accountability or responsibility from management. Management job is supposed to be helping the team and supporting them and learning the job which they extremely lack in. If you are OK with having someone tell you how to do your job that doesn’t know how to do your job then, you’re in luck. When the team was failing to hit quota, their solution was to keep it the same while calling the BDR‘s complacent. Management also failed to recognize that reps were obtaining quota only through going to events. A work colleague of mine gave feedback in a meeting and was later criticized for providing feedback. After that meeting, he was told not to speak up in a meeting like that. Yet they say they welcome feedback. Management finds time to do things that don’t benefit the team or add extra task to their plate. The organization also loves pointless meetings that can be summarized in two short sentences. My last piece is that the team has a mutual feeling about management and suckers up to them because they are playing the . Bamboo fails to recognize their weaknesses and if they managed to succeed, I would be impressed with how it’s been ran.
