Pros

The technology is decent and those that work to maintain/improve it work very hard. The breakfasts and lunches are a nice perk.

Cons

The executives were extremely difficult to work for. One was yelling in the office on almost a daily basis, and another constantly presented an attitude of being totally disinterested in anything anyone else had to say. Please don't be fooled by Leigh's efforts to respond to negative reviews, most of what he said is false, especially the part about employees being dismissed after given opportunities to improve. At least one employee received a positive performance review shortly before being terminated with absolutely no warning. Executives explored every avenue to cut costs at the expense of the staff, but never their own. I also witnessed clients being made fun of often, and former employees were vilified. Bonuses were promised and then never delivered. The executives drank in the office during work hours to the point where one would wonder about a serious drinking problem. There is no sense of work/life balance at all. You cannot be a sensitive person and be successful here. You will be yelled at, talked down to, and disrespected, especially if you are female and/or not white. The staff is diverse, but women and minorities are paid less compared to others in the same department and are pretty much only hired so the executives can claim how diverse the staff is.

Pros

I worked at BIS Global for 2 years in an exciting capacity where I enjoyed my interactions with clients the work I did and my coworkers. I will say I made some great friends at this job with awesome people, and I became more skilled and faster at what I do, certainly bonuses for me personally. The Office space is awesome and the coworkers and clients are great to work with. Everyone on staff is committed to excellence and giving 110% everyday. The software itself is improving and the overall idea is great.

Cons

I have been in the non profit tech space for a long time and I can tell you there is no perfect place. Every organization has its pitfalls. My experience at BIS global was unique and too many emotions to express in this review. The software is certainly improving. This is a great idea and the company has hired great people but it seems that they do not know how to manage their people or manage themselves. After two years of service I saw a lot. Mistreatment of staff (sexist and bullying).When a staff member leaves the organization they are belittled and blamed for existing problems. This also correlated to clients.Client deployments are often not thoughtful in the sales process and hardly anything is in 'scope' ultimately setting the client services and implementation teams up for failure. Not every executive on staff exemplifies these behaviors but its widespread enough for concern.
