- Current Employee, less than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
They actually care about the staff. They hear you when you voice a concern and do everything they can to improve your work experience. Good work life balance. Work remote. AMAZING Benefits. Very kind people. Challenging work with growth opportunities.
Cons
I haven't found any yet. I'm a new hire, and honestly I haven't found anything I don't like about BOLD. Just wish I had found it earlier!
Continue readingThank you very much for taking the time to write a review. We appreciate you taking the time to do so! We are glad you are having a great experience at BOLD. We do care about our employees because they are the ones that make it happen every day and they are critical to our success.
- Former Employee, more than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
Warning: All the good reviews you see are because HR encourages new employees to submit a Glassdoor review in their first 90 days, before the cracks show below the surface. If you want a more realistic view of BOLD, I recommend your sort "Lowest Rated" - Pretty good work/life balance if you don't have to work with remote teams - A lot of smart and kind people - Company is profitable (but for how long?)
Cons
- CEOs are completely out of touch. - The business model is basically a dark pattern. Not ethical. Tricks customers into buying a subscription that has little value and hopes the customer doesn't notice they are being charged. - No structured career path. Difficult to get promotions. Employees end of feeling stuck and frustrated. - Lack of vision

It can get too crazy with the amount of work you have but it’s also because we’re growing so fast.

- Former Employee★★★★★
Pros
Great, I learned a lot
Cons
Usual Tech Downsides, deep in financial district
- Former Employee, more than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
The people who actually do the are great. In terms of management, if you want to be like a waiter, taking orders and hopping to and fro, this is your company!
Cons
Leadership rules by decree about things they don’t understand, are incurious and make sure blame always rolls downhill. It is a high octane, macho culture where aggression is rewarded. If you want to feel good at the end of the day, not beat up, this is not the place for you.

- Former Employee, more than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
Not much of anything. Pay was decent.
Cons
Very unethical business model. It is surprising that they have not been caught for shady business practices. The business would get into ethical dilemmas if their business strategy was found out. Managers have no experience or business managing and come from mediocre schools- which is shown through their lack of intellectual depth and curiosity.
