Pros

There are so many great things about working at BambooHR that it's hard to know where to start. 1. Culture: We take great pains to ensure that we only hire people who fit the culture. We want to hire those who are hard-working, humble, have great personalities, and are willing to put in the work. 2. Work/Life Balance: This is so important because I've never had it anywhere else. Other company's I've worked for were always talking about it, but I never really got a sense of it or saw it in any way. At BambooHR, they are serious. It's not about trying to get out of paying someone overtime, it's about letting employees go home to be with their families without having work interfere. Leave work at work and go home. 3. Our Owners: I've never worked for a company where the owners actually care to learn the name of all their employees, let along try to interact with them all. At BambooHR our owners are the most accessable peoople. They are there if you want to bounce an idea off of them, or ask them a question about something. The know everyone's name and take care to know specific things about them. You are never just a number. I could go on and on about the amazing things that happen at BambooHR, but to wrap up I would say that they have truely ruined me for other companies because they are simply amazing in how they treat their employees.

Cons

We are still growing so figuring out processes and getting those implemented is sometimes a challenge, though not an unexpected one. At times, some of those who have been here the longest are resistant to change, but overall they all want what is best for the company. Our health plan could be better, but the one we have isn't horrible. I've definitely had worse.

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.
