BambooHR 4+

When our company started using this app I didn’t like it very much but then there was an update that allowed us to upload docs directly to employee files and add notes. Since then all of those features have disappeared and I’m only able to see my own information from the app. My job has me on the go a lot as a manager so being able to do these things on the go was simply amazing. Hoping they return soon so I can give a 5 star review

Love the people I work with! Well some… SOME production/project managers need some work on how they treat the crew chiefs/ technicians… our team feels abused by how they always give us last minute jobs when we are not on call. We are always the last ones to leave, and that’s by the way every other crew chief communicates with the man in charge, If you finish earlier than others, don’t just up and go. HELP! There are others out there that would really use and need it if they are close by but no! I am stuck with my boss almost everyday leaving with 12-and more hours when everyone else gets to leave at 5PM when we are stuck out here doing work because we always get stuck with other teams tasks, that they don’t want to do. I don’t even get to see my family most of the time and I feel like I have one foot out the door slipping on a banana peel and the other still in. I love you guys but you guys have to work on it! Because we are losing more and more employees because of the way our PM’s are treating others/ favoring other teams! Overtime is nice Pat but not when it’s up to only one team to do it most of the time! Mainly the worst jobs! Because other teams don’t want to do it! I love to help! But don’t like to be abused and taken advantage of! I HAVE A FAMILY TOO! And am at the verge of LEAVING AND TAKING MY SERVICES AND MY HARDWORK SOMEWHERE, WHERE THEY WILL APPRECIATE MY HARD WORK AND NOT TAKE TIME FROM MY FAMILY!

In my opinion there are some major flaws in this app that really knock the rating down a lot. First the calendar and “out today” feature neglect to include you as a person. Imagine the anxiety you would get when you check the calendar to see who is off as you get ready to come back from a long vacation and you don’t see your name. Are you going to loose your job because you left and checked out of work but got the dates wrong on accident? No. Instead of putting my time off on the calendar, it’s buried in the “My Info” tab under the “upcoming time off” section. Even then it’s wrong - the period of time off is now, not in the future.

Additionally the app “Send Feedback” section redirects you to an inaccessible google doc. It feels like a placeholder for some internal only testing document. It feels like this app wasn’t fully tested before being released.
