"Experiencing Headwinds"

Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

- Some seriously smart people doing their best to be innovative - Work/life balance is great - (Formerly?) Flexible remote/hybrid environment. Still available for some - Was once a great place to work. Still could be.

Cons

- We don't have the resources we need to do what Jamf needs to get done. And rather than correct this problem, we've literally cut back even further. As such, more and more has been pushed onto development teams and they are told to suck it up and be more productive at the same time. - Our well-liked, charismatic CEO retired, just in time for "significant headwinds" to hit. Current CEO seems like a nice enough guy but he doesn't command the understanding and respect that is needed to keep morale up. - Prior CEO declared 5 years ago that RTO would never happen. Many people built their lives in the past 5 years around this policy. Recently, all "Go to Market" teams were recalled, 3 days a week, for mandatory in-office. Non-GTM teams are still "work where you feel most productive", but those who DO work in the office have had concerns that there isn't enough quiet space to work there anymore. Every single one of these concerns (from both groups) has been brushed off: people were literally told to deal with the noise, that it was "productive" for the GTM teams to be noisy! - Very poor communication about downsizing. Right now teams are finding out that resources are missing via rumor mills vs official communication. - Once you're past the mid-levels of your career ladder, things are pretty well frozen. The higher positions require new role creation, and that hasn't happened in a good while (years). - Overall reduction in benefits/perks in the last few years

Lacks Diversity

Pros

Jamf is flexible and supports remote work. Decent benefits and interesting products.

Cons

Pay is Low for market. Jamf supports remote work but they do favor local people in Wisconsin and Minnesota. You have a lot of people who know each other locally and they do not bring in a ton of talent due to local politics. They do lack diversity overall and tech experience. Theres a lot of people who this is their first time working in tech. Jamf needs to hire better more experienced leaders for future success. I do not recommend this company due to the vast amount of recent changes and products introduced with zero pay increase or at least nothing meaningful.

Our commitment to inclusion, diversity, equity, and belonging is unwavering and though we continue to make strides, we recognize there are still areas for improvement. In recent years we have taken some important steps including the development of our formal Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging strategy, and the creation of our Inclusion & Diversity team, including a VP of Diversity, Talent, & Engagement, who will help lead us forward on our journey. We continue to roll out and advance our four DEIB pillars: Culture, Career, Community, and Communication; strengthening our pipeline of diverse talent and investing in partnerships to ensure a more inclusive evaluation and equitable hiring process; launching Employee Resource Group Leadership Academy to further scale the impact of Jamf ERG leaders and provide them knowledge, skills, and tools to sustain ERG momentum; and introducing cross-cultural competency development programs. We take concerns of diversity, inclusion, equity and belonging very seriously, and we are committed to providing an inclusive and equitable workplace for all. We encourage all employees to reach out directly to HR so we can better understand and address issues where they exist.

Pros

Jamf products and its reputation are really good. They offer good benefits (etc. inexpensive healthcare, vision, dental). Team-dependent but there are some really great people to work with and most mid-level managers are great and supportive. The flexibility of work from home is nice and leads to overall good work/life balance, which can be rare in tech. If you do not have any sales experience, they will still train and teach you well to be successful in sales. Wins are also celebrated.

Cons

The culture in the sales org changed for the worse. The positive and collaborative environment is gone. There are too many SDRs and AEs, some who work the same exact territory (why?), which created unnecessary competition and confusion. Collaboration was discouraged and made for a frustrating work experience. Senior managers started to be less supportive, adding unnecessary work, which added to on-going frustrations. It definitely felt like SDRs were starting to get treated like a means to an end, which is not the company Jamf says it is. SDRs were told they would promote in 6 months of their start date, which was a complete lie and the career growth within the company is virtually non-existent. If any SDRs do promote it is usually because of a relationship they have within the company, not based on their performance. Unfortunately, people from diverse backgrounds are often overlooked for promotions, leading to a very “white, male, sales-bro” environment, which is a detriment to a company that says it, “values diversity.” While the benefits are good, the pay is well-below market. And while management says they focus on the whole employee experiences when it comes to compensation, the pay is still garbage.

We appreciate your comments and taking the time to share this feedback with us. We do value employee input to understand how we can learn and grow as a company. Thank you for calling out our product reputation, great benefits, flexible work-life, and sales training. We value our culture at Jamf and work really hard to maintain that culture to create a great workplace for all. To address a few of your concerns, our goal is to hire within our own organization and get people ready to move into new roles. Unfortunately, some of the promotion growth has slowed down in the past year due to our thoughtful and conservative approach to hiring and spend to reflect the current economic conditions. We do expect company growth and promotions to pick up again as economic conditions improve. Our sales promotion strategy is based on performance and ensuring employees have a good understanding of the role and our product solutions so that they are set up for success. While moving to a choice-based office model has allowed us to hire form a diverse talent pool nationally, many of our employees are not local to an office. We are always looking for ways to collaborate, share best practices, and connect virtually as a team including weekly meetings, virtual happy hours, sales recognition events, virtual games and team communication channels to share best practices, tips and tricks. Every SDR is also assigned a mentor and we have a sales manager dedicated to training. Without meeting face to face or having the ability to “bump into” fellow Jamfs in the hallway, we do have to make an extra effort to reach out and engage with other Jamfs. We appreciate your feedback regarding sales teams in certain regions or categories. We do have multiple roles within a region to offer specialized solutions for a certain product area or audience, however we are constantly reviewing our sale structure to evolve our coverage model and identify what works best for everyone in the organization. Diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging is a top priority for Jamf and as part of being a “Great Place to Work,” we are committed to providing a safe and equitable workplace for all. Our DEIB strategy is a multi-year vision encompassing a diversity recruiting strategy and inclusive leadership and manager training to improve underrepresented communities access to career opportunities and advancement. We apologize that this has not been your experience and we are always looking to improve and get better. If you have additional details or instances to share we encourage current employees to share specific feedback for improvement by reaching out directly to HR.
