Pros

Company values are realized. (Not just a facade). People are always trying to walk the walk here. Unlike so many other workplaces, the founders created a place devoid of politics and political behaviors. If anyone happens to be prone to these things when they get in, it won't get them anywhere, and it quickly diffuses. I personally don't know anyone at this company who is only in it for themselves, and people are actually invested in what the product can do to help client companies and workplaces take better care of their employees. Leadership cares about their employees in very real way. "What you see is what you get" actually applies here! They're big on transparency to employees in company meetings.

Cons

Sometimes people are so stinking nice that they need to practice more of the radical cador the leadership has asked for. You're not helping anyone if you're so nice that you don't quickly tell them how they can improve. If you actually care about someone's success (and everyone I know here does), then help them succeed by telling them! Also, it's rough that the genuinity of the culture takes a solid 3 months to sink in. Usually it's a "deer in headlights" or "how do I even operate in place like this?" feeling. ;-)

Pros

If you’re complacent with being told what to do and are OK with the pay, you will be OK working here

Cons

There might not be enough space for what I have to say. Management is full of narcissist. Little to no accountability or responsibility from management. Management job is supposed to be helping the team and supporting them and learning the job which they extremely lack in. If you are OK with having someone tell you how to do your job that doesn’t know how to do your job then, you’re in luck. When the team was failing to hit quota, their solution was to keep it the same while calling the BDR‘s complacent. Management also failed to recognize that reps were obtaining quota only through going to events. A work colleague of mine gave feedback in a meeting and was later criticized for providing feedback. After that meeting, he was told not to speak up in a meeting like that. Yet they say they welcome feedback. Management finds time to do things that don’t benefit the team or add extra task to their plate. The organization also loves pointless meetings that can be summarized in two short sentences. My last piece is that the team has a mutual feeling about management and suckers up to them because they are playing the . Bamboo fails to recognize their weaknesses and if they managed to succeed, I would be impressed with how it’s been ran.
