I’m not sure where this influx of 5 star reviews are coming from now. Like many others, I thought bandwidth was a place I’d stay at for more than a year. I can’t believe how horribly wrong I was. I left my old job seeking a better one here and what I got was much, much worse. They pulled me in within the first couple of months with the free lunches, the remote work, etc. Once the rose colored glasses came off, I saw this place for what it was. Let me just preface this also by saying - maybe this is just the specific department I’m in. But who knows - I never got a chance to even get to know anyone else because all of these “community events” and “bandmate meet ups” you see plastered all over LinkedIn - I never knew about any of these events going on. If there was, well I can guarantee I couldn’t attend it because I have to stay glued to my computer all day, every day. There’s just no better way to explain this job other than: it’s extremely over demanding. Management and coworkers are extremely cliquey and nothing is confidential. It’s sad. We all knew we would have to go back into the office at some point, but 5 days a week is insane and outdated. Doing it for the sake of company culture ? Nobody even talks to each other in the ‘cubicles’ when I am in the office. Every time i go in, everyone’s wearing headphones and working like we are in a factory. “be fruitful and multiple” posters everywhere of employee’s kids. Creepy. The new campus? Ok… I’d take my mental health over a new soccer field I will never use any day. This job has had such a huge negative impact on my mental health it’s insane. Not only are you glued behind a computer, you’re dealing with rude customers who literally say they expect you to bend over backwards for them. I will do all I can to provide a good experience but bending over backwards? I’ll pass. Management doesn’t do anything about the way customers talk to you. Unless you want stress, no personal life because you’ll be working crazy late shifts, don’t bother. There’s better options out there.
