Pros

The people at Homebound are truly special. Unfortunately, they hired too many great people in 2022 and were forced to layoff 10%-20% of their workforce.

Cons

No growth opportunities. The growth opportunities in the 'growth' department were few and far between. Seemed to promote people based on relationships within the company and not skillset.

Thanks so much for sharing about your experience at Homebound. It's great to hear that you found the people you worked with to be truly special – I personally think the team at Homebound is one of a kind. I’m sorry to hear that you experienced limited growth in your department, and I know the SDR team is a place where we can (and need to) invest more in building internal growth and learning opportunities. One of our professional development tenets is to provide opportunities for our employees to learn, develop new skills, and advance in their careers during their tenure at Homebound and we want to make sure we’re living those tenets consistently across our company, in every team. I’m committed to taking steps to address the concerns you’ve outlined and I’m appreciative of your candid feedback. Thanks for sharing your experience, Caitlin, Chief People Officer

Pros

I spent 7 years at Homebound and would have happily continued my career there if circumstances hadn’t shifted. It’s rare to find a company that combines strong operational ambition with a genuine belief in its mission. Leadership, especially at the executive level, sets a high bar for accountability and vision. Our CEO consistently pushed the company to think bigger while still remaining deeply invested in the people building it day to day. I always felt trusted to own my work and empowered to contribute beyond my job description.

Cons

Like many high-growth companies, priorities can shift quickly and the pace can be demanding.

Pros

You are free to leave at any time. I did just that. I found a good job elsewhere and left this horrible experience behind.

Cons

The leadership is awful. These arrogant people spend a lot of time blaming employees for not doing a perfect job. In reality, the leaders were incompetent. These terrible people couldn't do their jobs right, and it had a negative impact on everyone. If you have a bit of self-respect, you will avoid this toxic workplace. Here, you will find nothing but a lot of awful stress. You will be humiliated over little things and blamed for not doing a perfect job when you didn't even have the resources to do a good job. Most of my colleagues were also frustrated or burnt out. They had given up and were adjusting just for the pay. It was depressing to be around such negative people. I took my first breath of relief the day I quit.
