How the Global VP of People at BigID transformed their HR analytics and engagement

The Challenge

BigID’s 400+ employees across multiple countries were struggling with manual performance reviews and unreliable analytics. Their existing tools couldn’t handle DEI tracking, attrition insights, or recognition—restricting HR’s ability to engage teams and advise leadership.

The Solution

BigID adopted Bob for digitizing reviews, unifying people data, and providing managers with real-time dashboards. They rolled out 360° feedback, monitored KPIs, and leveraged Shoutouts and Kudos to recognize employee achievements at scale.

The Results

Bob provided BigID the tools to automate performance reviews, reveal strategic people data, and boost engagement. Today, HR delivers actionable insights to leadership and maintains a transparent, data-driven culture.

Bob is different today than it was two and a half years ago. Every time I go in, I see enhancements to the look and feel or a new feature. I love that. We are growing, and the tool is growing with us.
