Case Study: CB Insights achieves 20–30% daily HR time savings and streamlined onboarding with BambooHR

How CB Insights uses BambooHR to grow its people strategically

CB Insights, a 100–350 person SaaS company, faced rapid growth in 2015 that exposed a backlog of manual HR work. Menaka Chang, VP of People Operations (who had been essentially a one‑person team), needed to automate time-off tracking, store employee documents centrally, and free up time for strategic priorities like hiring and onboarding.

She implemented BambooHR as an easy‑to‑use, scalable HRIS for employee data, PTO, onboarding and performance management. The change delivered 20–30% daily time savings for the HR team, a 40+ task onboarding checklist, stronger reporting and headcount planning, a single integrated database to eliminate double entry, and simpler performance management that enabled more frequent manager feedback.
