Bambee has made managing HR compliance easy in a way that truly feels "in house." It's easy to set up and use, and I love that we have a dedicated HR manager who understands our business, company culture, and HR goals. The customer support is incredible and we are always able to speak with someone in short order.
Some of the technical aspects are a little clunky or don't respond in the way that it seems like they should. Customer support is usually able to help though.
Bambee helps us manage policies for remote workers across several different states. We're also able to better understand best practices and regulations around onboarding/offboarding. We also benefit greatly from having a dedicated HR manager we can speak with to work through any issues or situations in the workplace.
Bambee has given me something that I couldn't provide being a small business, a dedicated HR employee. When I have a question, my personal representative is only a phone call away. I love knowing that someone has the answer I need. Bambee has given me the freedom to run my business without the headache of always handling HR concerns.
I don't believe there are any downsides to having Bambee. I may not have my personal representative directly in my office, but there is a live chat option so help is always a click away. If I must talk with my rep. I can usually set up a time within 24 hours.
Bambee has helped me understand the rules of FLMA in my state. Bambee is also actively writing policies that we need to stay in compliance with our state regulations. Bambee takes the guessing game away from HR and employment law.
Ease of use and peace of mind knowing I have all of the required documents in place to keep our comany and our employees protected.
It can be hard to casually get in touch with someone. A simple question requires an official request.
Onboarding new employees and keeping required documents.
The initial onboarding experience was fantastic and put our minds at ease that someone was paying attention to all the HR details. We had our documents before we knew it, and our HR pro was there every step of the way.
Not much thus far. Been a consistent experience thus far.
The HR documents were the key. Ensuring that they were updated and continually up to date with changing laws and regulations
Bambee makes every part of the HR process easier. Our rep is quick and knowledgeable and gets back to me with new policies or answers to my questions within twenty-four hours. I never have to question whether or not the wait will be long, and I can tell my execs confidently that we will have an answer or a new policy the next business day.
There isn't anything I do not like. I do wish it was a little easier to go in and save my documents as a PDF and have it look nice. As of right now, everything is kept in an online filing cabinet, so it isn't really designed to be printed off. I prefer paper, though, so I would love to have a little notebook full of everyone's policies that looks super sharp!
We upgraded to Bambee from a smaller firm and wanted quicker service and for someone to get back with us when we had questions, needed new policies, etc. Bambee does just that. They have one rep that I go to for everything and a bigger team for her to access for us if she doesn't know the answer to something. For billing questions, for example, she just gets me connected with the correct person. They make the whole process very easy.
Great help with multi-state compliance..
Can be a bit slow to respond sometimes..
We had an HR contract who was hiring lawyers to deal with compliance issues in California. We replaced both of them with Bambee. They have helped us become far more compliant in over 20 states and have helped us develop a multi-state compliant employee handbook (and this was no small task!)
I love being able to send them questions as they arise on HR issues. I love the fact they can help me get all my policies electronically for signature and updated as laws change.
I wish they would let us track PTO days for employees without moving to their payroll features.
Keeping policies updated and compliant.
We enjoy using the payroll feature for our company. Very user-friendly.
Sometimes the response time from the Bambee time can take a while.
Since we do not have an HR team of our own they help with us any internal things that we need such as payroll, employee writeups, or terminations.
