Pros

- Exposure to many different products within the Bullhorn Suite which means you'll keep learning new use cases and new customer problems to solve, won't get dry - Market leaders in region for ATS - A few high performers across the sales team with long tenures and have successfully grown the region year over year from a start-up - Monthly mobile phone expense is subsidised - I believe there is a strong leadership team in the US and hats off to the executive team for growing tremendously year on year

Cons

- With so many different products, you'll have minimal time to ramp/upskill on the products whilst doing your day-to-day job. This often means working longer hours than expected. - Whilst you may work after hours of the contracted hours - depending on your direct report, there's a high degree of micromanaging and unfair expectation to start at 8:30am on the dot. Refusal to comply would often result in criticism and being written up. - The pay is below market rate and as it is private equity owned RSUs/Options are not available. - Additionally, normal tech company benefits are non-existent. For example: Complimentary private health insurance, gym membership and home internet reimbursement. - If you are joining the solutions consultant team, it is important to note your direct report in region will be a first time manager. In addition to inexperience, the person is quite fickle depending on how other colleagues view you. - This has led to lack of a transparency when soliciting feedback on performance as one week you're performing well and the next you're doing horrible. - There is a strong gossip culture across the team, almost to the point of bullying. This would escalate to personal insults as a former employee would constantly be brought up and mocked for their hobbies.

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
