Pros

If you work here you will have a job that gets you paychecks. They will fill the air full of smoke and mirrors, stories of culture and values. If you allow yourself to believe in it you can feel good for awhile as you are working with them.

Cons

If you expect the values to go both ways you will get burned. As another review on here states it is not a good sales experience. Funny thing about that is since the reviewer was still an employee they rated 5 stars to try and keep from getting any retaliation...Well the week long knee jerk/witch hunt that came should help tell you what you are in for if you choose to join. Just ask around and see how many people have been working there for more than a year in sales... Sad even I was scared to review until I had left the company.

Let's be honest, this hurts! We spend so much time and effort on helping every employee succeed and embrace responsibility for everything we could have done better. We make efforts that are well beyond what we believe other firms make to provide opportunities to succeed, but we're sorry it didn't work out. For those seeking to learn more, reach out!

Pros

If you find the right pockets of culture and leadership, you will LOVE it at Bamboo. The Marketing, Technology, HR, and Finance organizations have fantastic leaders who truly care about their employees. There are many opportunities to grow within these departments and career paths are clearly defined. Pay is not great, but the benefits are amazing.

Cons

There are SO many snakes in the grass here. Especially within the CX and Sales organizations. CX and Sales leaders are always looking for ways to hurt each other and they do - frequently. The organization is is going through a big growth phase, but it means that the pressure is INSANE right now. There are too many projects happening at once and no one cares about how it affects other areas of the org.
