Pros

Great people at BambooHR. Including leadership. People genuinely care about people here. Flexible with hybrid work days when needed.

Cons

Low salaries, product has lost product market fit because no investment in product for years. That is changing now, but we're playing catch up. So new sales are down, and the sales team is disjointed (some teams only work inbound leads, some teams only do cold out bounding, some teams only work partnership referrals) so depending on the team you end up on (inbound sales, you'll make more money and have easier deals) you will have a good or bad experience.

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.
