Pros

Overall, I find that BambooHR truly trusts and values their employees. After nearly two years here, I have found that they live by their motto–"Set people free to do great work."–very well in most cases. This leads to a great deal of autonomy and freedom to become the expert in your area, and play an important role in the growth of a top company. Bamboo's benefits are amazing. Their pay is fair (though not as high as other top tech companies). You also won't see people working more than 40 hours a week very often, which is rare, especially in marketing. Bamboo genuinely cares about their employees. There are a lot of other good things I could say about Bamboo, but the last one worth mentioning are the career and personal growth opportunities. Bamboo is undergoing some ridiculous growth right now, and I find that they're very open to people making lateral or upward movement within the company in order to find their ideal fit. Yes, you have to work for opportunities like these, but I think that would be true in most companies. Bamboo has had higher marketing turnover in recent months, but in general, it seems that the people who leave are being offered irresistible money (we're talking increases of 30-50k/year. There's a lot of great talent here, and other companies recognize that. Oh, and a triple thumbs up for how Bamboo has handled COVID-19!

Cons

Bamboo's pay is fair, but it's definitely on the lower end when stacked up against other top tech companies (again, at least in marketing). As I've mentioned before, Bamboo's lower pay allows other top companies to poach some of their best talent, which has become a pain point for a lot of teams. Bamboo's paternity leave is lackluster. Very minimalist when it comes to perks and swag.

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.
