Pros

I’ve been here almost a month, and I can honestly say that Bamboo is a company that cares about its employees and people. It’s a very communicative and collaborative place where you feel encouraged to do great work; not because you’re hitting a quota, but because you’re surrounded by excellent people who care about you and the company. Bamboo has fantastic values, a fantastic product and fantastic people. I hope to stay here for a long time. Benefits are pretty great in general - paid paid time off (annual reimbursement of up to $2,000 of PTO/vacation expenses), generous 401k match, and a generous PTO policy. The company also has no debt, so it’s not forced to listen to outside voices when making business decisions and has a lot more freedom to develop and grow how they want.

Cons

Not a lot so far. I guess the health insurance options aren’t phenomenal, but in 2025, that’s kind of how it is everywhere. It’s a lot larger than the company I was at previously, so with that, certain tech systems and teams are complicated and it can be hard to keep track of who owns what piece of software development.

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.
