Improving communication between departments is a big focus for us; thank you for keeping the topic top of mind! In terms of compensation, per Art's town hall message last week, talk to your manager or one of us here in HR if you feel you aren't being compensated for the work you do.

"Not sustainable" - My former manager

Pros

There are some amazing, hard-working and talented individuals at Bullhorn. Honestly -- great products. I believe my customers made the best decision when purchasing Bullhorn.

Cons

I ultimately left because I caught on to the immature culture and was professionally unfulfilled at the hands of my leader. I can say more about poor communication between departments that demonstrates Bullhorn’s inside-out thinking, but I’ll stick to the first point. Micromanagement is not a motivator, nor a way to attract long-term employees or strengthen morale. I've spoken to several others who have recently left. They too were no longer swayed by happy hour culture alone and felt they've outgrown Bullhorn. **When I was hired, my manager actually told me “this isn’t a sustainable lifestyle, but it is a good way to make money for a couple of years before you get married and start a family. If you haven’t noticed, we like to hire people in a certain stage of their life”**. I learned quickly that a certain stage meant people who don't know any better and who never worked for another company for perspective. Not enough experienced adults in this room. It was typical to receive calls and emails at ALL HOURS -no exaggeration- and while on PTO. That stretches beyond 'high expectations' and hits 'drink the Kool-Aid' territory. I highly suggest if you are seeking employment to dig for the negative reviews, as many of the positive reviews seem to appeal more to people of a certain life stage.

Working hard is one thing, but if your manager actually said those things, then that totally goes against our values here as an organization. I'm concerned, as I'm hearing about some of these things you've highlighted for the first time. We've made a number of changes on the sales team in the last 6 months and I want to make sure I'm not missing anything. Can we discuss this first hand? Would you email me at mrestivo@bullhorn.com to connect if you are comfortable.

I can understand that you felt you weren't paid enough when working 70 hours a week. I hope you discussed with your leader ways to prioritize your time and work assignments. I wish you came and talked with me - our culture doesn't expect anyone working 70 hours a week.
