Best Job EVER!

Pros

I love working with talented people and BambooHR has that in spades! If I’m in a meeting or having a work conversation, I know I have to been creative and give my best. Being challenged on this level every day is refreshing and I love my job. I know the other people on my team have my back and they are ready and willing to give their best to help me be successful and achieve my goals. I've never seen an Executive team who measures success by more than just the bottom line. They genuinely care about individuals and want each team member to succeed in their role. It’s always fun to watch new people join the team and see their reactions as Executives stop by and say hi or strike up a conversation in the hall. I was chatting with a new hire asking how they liked their job and the team and she mentioned that the CEO was talking with her in the hall and she didn’t know what to do. We both laughed and I told her that’s just how he is, a real person.

Cons

For me this is actually a pro and not a con but you'll be asked to stretch and grow. Change can be very hard for individuals but everyone is very supportive as you take on challenges in your work and how you work with others.

Toxic culture and constant layoffs overshadow past strengths

Pros

None really. Use to be pretty good but it's been a continuous slide into mediocrity.

Cons

C suite is out of touch. The entire company is banking hard on the idea AI will replace the entire company. I think the CTO's perfect company would be no employees and just 1,000 claude agents running. Manager told me in a 1-on-1 that we need to get to a point that managers can design and code features without any coding/design skills, and that we needed to get that point or we'd have even more layoffs. Oh yeah, lay offs, return to office, constant gas lighting, hostile culture, overall just a shell of what it once was.
