Pros

At its core, Bombora has smart people and a product with potential. There is also a flexible remote structure (in theory) for anyone who hasn't joined in the last year.

Cons

I’m compelled to share some hard truths about the internal dynamics that are increasingly difficult to ignore. While the company presents itself as values-driven, with a strong emphasis on collaboration, respect, and trust, the reality on the inside tells a different story. Leadership has become increasingly cliquey, creating an environment where visibility and success seem more tied to personal alliances than to anything else. It’s disheartening to watch talented, thoughtful individuals sidelined, second-guessed, or even let go, simply because they’re not part of the “inner circle”. Despite being a fully remote company on paper, the new leadership team has quickly and quietly shied away from that model, now hiring almost exclusively NYC-based employees. This shift has created a stark divide between in-office and remote staff, intensifying the already cliquey dynamic and further marginalizing those who aren’t based in New York. What’s more, job descriptions make no mention of required time in the office, yet new hires have complained privately, that they are being informally pressured to be onsite two to three days per week. More troubling is the pervasive tone of disrespect that is often brushed off as "directness" or "urgency." I've witnessed numerous instances where colleagues were spoken to in ways that crossed the line: demeaning, dismissive, and unprofessional. Unfortunately, this behavior doesn’t seem to be the exception; it’s becoming the norm and as new hires join in, they quickly follow suit. Adding to the concern are recent operational decisions that feel wildly disconnected from the company’s mission and values. Strategic moves are made with little transparency or input, and the rationale behind them often leaves teams confused and demoralized. It’s hard to trust leadership when their actions consistently contradict the collaborative and employee-centric culture they claim to champion.

Pros

- The interview process is thorough yet reasonable - The team is highly organized during onboarding and clearly aims to make the experience as seamless as possible - Everyone I’ve interacted with has been friendly, approachable, and eager to help - Compensation is competitive

Cons

- The interview process includes multiple rounds, which may feel extensive for candidates who aren’t used to that format, though it reflects a thorough approach to hiring

Pros

Bombora has been great. I've been able to learn a lot and been promoted. I work remotely and feel connected to my team and my colleagues. There's a lot of pressure in my job but I feel supported and I'm glad I chose to came here 3 years ago!

Cons

I wish we had more opportunities to meet in person but I appreciate that my manager has made sure we have 2 offsites a year. It would be nice if we could get together more often as a team, to spend time in person together. But don't take away the ability to work remotely!
