      The greatest company I've ever worked for

      Pros

      The culture at Bamboo gets highlighted a lot, but it truly is different than any company I've worked for or seen. Bamboo's values are a big part of how their employees live their lives, both inside the office and at home. My favorite is grow from good to great! The software gets talked about less than our culture, but it's just as amazing. The software is actually one of the main reasons why I wanted to work here! I'm in a customer-facing role but it's awesome to be able to talk about our software all day because it helps improve our clients' lives, in some cases dramatically. What's better than having a job that actually matters? Training in my position has been unlike anything I've experienced and when I bring it up to people outside of my Bamboo family, they've never heard of anything like it either. Bamboo gives their new employee's tools to be successful--training being one of those many resources.

      Cons

      I can't think of anything!

      Pros

      - Leadership is outstanding. I've never enjoyed working for anyone more than I do for this group. The executives are exceptionally good people who genuinely strive to do the right thing - Growth has been non-stop for the many years I've been here, and there are always opportunities to grow and take on more - Coworkers are diverse in many ways but share commitment to our common values. There is a great sense of belonging here and ramp time to contribution is short. - The company is smart financially which means stability, but it also means there are resources to do your job. You're not expected to do something with nothing. If you can make a good case for your objective, you can get the resources to make it happen. - HR software might not sound super exciting, but we're changing the way people work across tens of thousands of companies and work cultures. It's making a difference.

      Cons

      - Rapid growth means constant change. If you don't like change, this isn't the place for you. - Process and organizational efficiency is improving rapidly, but the start-up roots run deep. You need patience and resilience to weather the frustrations that inevitably come with growing pains - There are certainly imperfections ranging from bad processes to inexperienced managers to flat out mis-hires, but nothing a little resilience, grit, and determination can't overcome. When there are problems, they're not swept under the rug and ignored. There's a culture that supports constructive feedback and change for the better.

      Pros

      Bamboo's values help all employees stay on track and make the best decisions for the business. They empower us to have good conversations, make our interactions count, to always do the right thing, and to become better people at work and at home. They sincerely care about all employees and you can feel that in the ways that they openly communicate.

      Cons

      I can't think of any cons. BHR management works hard to manage the extensive growth and expectations reasonably, so no complaints here.
