Pros

- Remote Work - Some departments are better to work in than others

Cons

- Company scares you so that you do not provide them negative feedback. Negative comments and feedback are filtered and hidden. Please, Bullhorn, tell the truth. - There is a culture here where if an employee does not know the answer to your questions, they will make something up or just ignore you all together. - Managers and directors in some departments are very sexist. We are in 2023, folks, please get with the times. These individuals have no oversight. They get away with everything whilst employees under them suffer quietly. - Extremely hostile work environment WITH (subtle) retaliation. Bringing solid constructive feedback to your manager will result in toxic meetings and follow ups. - Managers pretend to be on your side, but then sabotage you by giving you something different to focus on. In turn, when you inevitably fail at the difficult task they gave you, they take stabs at your personality and mentally beat you down. - Most importantly, company does NOT accept and accommodate neurodivergence in the workplace. In fact, this was used against me and that was extremely inappropriate. In conclusion, I've developed a great deal of self-hate from this horrible experience. I wouldn't wish this upon anyone else. Please stay clear of Bullhorn. It will look like sunshine and rainbows at first, but it is just a mirage for the sexist and hostile environment that is truly behind the scenes. I can confidently say that I will never suggest anyone be employed here.

We have two primary avenues for our employees to provide feedback. Our formal processes are our engagement and pulse surveys, which take place in the spring and fall. We share both positive and constructive feedback from these surveys during our townhalls, because the voices of our employees matter and we rely on your feedback to drive improvements within our organization. Additionally, every single comment is read a number of times by numerous levels of leadership, and where concerns are raised, we investigate as appropriate. We know that no place of employment is perfect but we have always been committed to providing an incredible experience for both our employees and our customers. Secondly, every employee is also encouraged to connect with ANY leader informally, at any time, if they need additional support - and I'm at the top of that list. So it's disheartening to hear this feedback for the first time in this way. Let me be clear - hostility, discrimination and retaliation are not tolerated here, period. What you raised here is serious, but very difficult for me to look into without further context. I also want to say that mental health and well-being is very much part of our culture here at Bullhorn. Each year, we engage in mental health awareness month as an organization with formal, companywide events. We've had speaker sessions, created a learning & development course on the topic of neurodiversity, and many of our people leaders have been trained in mental health safety. All of these initiatives have been done to support our employees' sense of belonging, so I'm really sorry to hear there's a disconnect here for you. We would love an opportunity to learn more about your experience directly and help support you. Please connect with me directly. - Kelley Morse, Chief People Officer

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
