Pros

Excellent place to work if you are ambitious and want to grow your career. Best part of the company is that they promote based on merit and ability instead of time spent in a role, meaning that if you prove yourself early and often, you can expect advancement quickly. Furthermore, they are quick to create roles that currently don't exist if you can prove that there is a need for that role, so you aren't tied to some archaic org chart with delineated paths of advancement; you can be a 'pioneer' and start your own path. Finally, despite the accelerated growth within the organization, they still maintain the mentality of the start-up I joined years ago. Not bureaucratic, welcoming of all ideas, and things move incredibly quickly.

Cons

Not necessarily a con, but since we maintain the start-up mentality, things can change rather quickly. You can be working on a project one day for an initiative, then have the entire initiative scratched the next and be moved to something else. If you are the type that likes a clearly defined path forward that is nice and neat and moves at a consistent pace, probably not the best place for you to work.

Pros

It's nearly impossible to find a company to work for that has the same culture as Bullhorn. One thing specifically has kept me at Bullhorn: everyone WANTS you to succeed and WANTS to help you succeed, if they can.

Cons

Bullhorn is a work-from-home-first company, so there's not much outside interaction / socializing with your colleagues, unless you work in one of the offices. If that is something that is important to you, when looking for your next employer, you may want to consider working from one of the brick-and-mortar offices Bullhorn has.

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
