Bandwidth reviews

For me, two things set this company apart from other places. One is the amazing new technologies we are developing. Very forward thinking, always making sure we take the innovations towards a fruitful future. The second thing is the way they run the company. Unlike any other place I've seen, they make sure their people are taken care of. In so many ways, and at all times. People Services constantly working to provide all sorts of fun events and learning opportunities. The CEO is blessed with the gift to inspire others to better themselves, a truly genuine cool guy. The rest of the executive team is ambitious and hungry to succeed, they seem to be thinking ahead and making good decisions. Very open communication, everyone in the company is fully approachable.

I've been a Bandwidth employee for right at a year now, and I'm hard-pressed to find anything negative to say. It's rare to find a company that does exciting work, in a very stable environment, while caring so much about the employee experience. Here's a quick-hits list of why Bandwidth is so great: * Exciting work - we're changing the way people communicate, powering companies like Skype, Google, Vonage, and Pinger. We use bleeding edge technologies to build massively scalable voice and data solutions, and it's a lot of fun. * Fantastic benefits - No health insurance premiums with low co-pays and deductibles. 401k, dental, life insurance... you get the picture. * Work/Life Balance - when you take a vacation, your boss instructs your co-workers to not email you lest you be tempted to respond. If he discovers you're working too many hours, the CEO will come by daily and send you home. * Corporate Culture - the company pours tons of investment into the employee experience. Spirit week included a scavenger hunt, pizza eating competition, trivia bowl, wear your PJs to work day, and a hilarious executive dance-off. A few weeks earlier, we had a corn hole tournament. There are staff dedicated to making these things happen, and they're all documented by the company videographer/photographer. * Workspace - the Raleigh office used to be Red Hat's, and they built it out right. The Denver office is in the heart of LoDo, a block from Coors Field. * Great Management - the people running the show are incredibly smart. They're also extremely approachable. I think the CEO knows all 300+ employees by name, and can tell you meaningful things about most everybody in the company. I wanted the experience of a startup without the financial risks and ridiculous hours, and this is it!
