Pros

Good health benefits for 2025. PTO. Nice people.

Cons

Almost everyone is underpaid. I have heard there will be little to no promotions this year. There is a long drawn out political war that has been going on with a few executives. They keep hiring more executives, what are they thinking? Good people are starting to leave. I have heard from many people they don’t know what our goals are. No actual budget, WTF. This company when interviewing says the right things to get you in, then holds you back, no real growth. What happened to living our values?

Thank you for sharing your thoughts about your experiences at BambooHR. Your comments tell us there is some missing connective tissue between our overarching strategy and each team member, but fear not, there are some internal resources to learn more in this space! We have implemented cascading goals for every team member, tying what they do to a major company objective or measure of business health (search goals in Slite, and it should come up), and we're working right now on planning and budgets for 2025, but it is potentially the case that your leaders' budget rolls into their Executive's ownership and they have limited visibility - not sure! Furthermore, we review our total rewards benchmarks reguarly to ensure we're aligned to both market and industry standards. We suggest you use the upcoming eNPS survey to share specific ideas and recommendations to your leaders, and even better if you connect it to ways you believe our values could be lived authentically! That will help us continue to grow from good to great grounded in specific ways we can do better. Thanks, Anita, Head of HR

Pros

Product is amazing and we are going in the right direction! people are great to work with and its a product that every company can benefit from.

Cons

Sales have been terrible this year and the management seems to think it is becasue we are remote that we are "not aligned" so they are making us go back to 3 days in office starting in January. Leads are the lowest they have ever been and hitting quota is few and far between. They need to update important features like Performance and tailor pricing more.

We appreciate your thoughtful feedback and are honored to hear your support and enthusiasm for our product, as well as the people who make our company great. We understand that transitioning back to an office environment may present challenges for some team members, and we're committed to making this process as smooth and supportive as possible for team members. The decision for sales to go back to the office 3 days a week was determined by a need for collaboration, innovation, and maintaining our company culture. While remote work has its benefits and will remain an option for many Bambooligans, both current and future, we believe that in-person interactions foster creativity, teamwork, and a sense of belonging that is essential to our success. That being said, we understand that individual circumstances vary, and we're committed to being flexible and accommodating where possible. We value the feedback of our team members, and we encourage open communication as we navigate this transition together. We also would love to hear your thoughts around how we can improve our product, and would encourage you to share with your leader/skip-level leader directly, as well as other relevant teams. Thanks, Anita, Head of HR
