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

The Challenge

BigID, with 400+ employees across various countries, was dealing with manual performance reviews and disconnected analytics. Their current tools couldn’t handle DEI tracking, attrition insights, or recognition—restricting HR’s ability to engage teams and support leadership.

The Solution

BigID adopted Bob to digitize reviews, unify people data, and provide managers with real-time dashboards. They implemented 360° feedback, monitored KPIs, and utilized Shoutouts and Kudos to recognize employee achievements company-wide.

The Results

Bob provided BigID with the tools to automate performance reviews, reveal strategic people data, and boost engagement. Today, HR provides actionable insights to leadership and creates a transparent, data-focused 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.
