Pros

I guess it's the paycheck

Cons

only been at bullhorn amost a year, but i cant keep quiet about this. it would mean I agree with Support management and I don't. Support leaders announced they were bringing in a senior manager to help with change, bring new ideas, mentor young leaders, etc. This on the heels of negative racial, gender and leadership reviews and wouldn't you know, this person fit all categories. i think they were strategic in who they hired for this. We were all excited because we desperately needed change in Support. Only to see this person being a 'supervisor' day after day. No chance of actually doing what they was hired for, but what senior leadership needed-another supervisor to manage analysts day to day work. Oh yeah, the other supervisors were slammed with too many people This was an awesome leader who was USED! I heard other supervisors and leads excitement that this person arrived only to be disaapointed that it wasn't for the reason they were told. I cannot be quiet and no need for me to go to HR- senor leadership in support doesn't listen to HR; they spin it to fit what HR needs to hear. I hope this person didnt leave another job to come to a place on a broken promise. if so, they need to be compensated!! They are leaving bullhorn and I hope they find a place where they can be the change they were supposed to be at bullhorn. bullhorn is losing a great leader and support leadership could have learned a lot from them. leadership should have never let this happen. This person actually cared about people, showed it AND WE BELIEVED IT!!! you not only lied to them, but you lied to us!!!!

This review hit us, including me personally, hard. It took a while to respond to this review because we wanted make sure that we’d communicated an action plan to the team first. It's clear that senior leadership wasn't a good job listening to the needs for change in support. As a result, a lack of trust surfaced in this part of the business. We have since gone out on a listening tour, and based on what we learned we have kicked off a number of initiatives so that we can be more receptive to changes that are needed in the business. For instance, we've established an ambassador program to formalize a process for surfacing new ideas for how we can create a better work experience. Other initiatives are also underway as described in a recent town hall. Nevertheless, we understand that we have a lot of work to do win back your trust, and we hope that you will stick with us as we embark on this transformation. And, as always, if you want to talk to me directly, just message me on slack or email.

Pros

-Brand is well-known, Bullhorn has established their position in the market, navigated numerous highs and lows through the years, and remains at the top -Constantly evolves with the industry, feels like the business strategy is ahead of the curve and not behind the curve -Dynamic and innovative, I learn new things constantly and I am rarely bored here -Consistently promotes from within and encourages career growth via ad-hoc opportunities and stretch projects, invests in talent via leadership programs -Culture of excellence, attracts high-achievers, high standards are balanced with the flexibility of a remote-first environment and trust, leaders treat you like adults and empower you to manage your own time and work -The core values are aligned with my personal values, and employees actually live them (leadership included) -The people are the best: Agile, collaborative, smart, innovative, and they CARE about each other, about the work, and about the industry; global workforce offers incredible opportunities to learn about and work with other people toward a common goal

Cons

-Bullhorn changes and evolves with the industry, which sometimes causes shifts in projects, priorities, and teams. If you don't like change and/or can't connect your day-to-day work to the bigger picture strategy of a company and pivot accordingly, this isn't the place for you. The expectations and pace aren't for everybody (but 10/10 would recommend to the right person).

This is a really terrific review, and is one of the accurate portrayals of our company. For all the PROS, the cons are real - we move quickly, and a certain type of talent thrives here. I hope you continue to love it and feel energized by where we are going - if not, you know where to find me!! - Kelley Morse, CPO

Pros

Approachable leadership that leads by example Excellent managers Top notch culture and people Flexible and remote work options Great work/life balance Unlimited PTO Solid health benefits + 401K Mentorship program Always evolving - keeps you on your toes Constant learning opportunities

Cons

Always evolving can also be a con - while I personally thrive in this setting, the constant change can (and has been) not ideal for some, especially in the last few years.

This is an incredibly thoughtful review. What sticks with me is the part on seasons and living through each of them. Getting through winter makes the summer feel just that much better, and while you're toughing it out, the relationships only deepen in times of challenge. It's a really good analogy. Thanks for giving me a few to mull on this morning. Hope you continue to love it here, thrive here through all the seasons ahead! - Kelley Morse, CPO
