Pros

Free ham and cheese sandwiches every company meeting. Great owners.

Cons

The managers in the SDR org are a joke. Go along with everything leadership says or you won't be a culture fit. The culture is shoved down your throat daily. If you leave the company they will go on a with hunt if you leave a bad Glassdoor review. The short answer reviews on here are a façade to push any negative true review down. Growth internally will take an eternity. The paid/paid "benefit" is a marketing tactic, you'll end up paying hundreds in taxes if you use the full $2k. Bonuses year to year is secretive. You'll have a better experiences at other companies within their sales organizations.

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.
