Answer 2

From The Palm Centre :

"Bamboo in containers
The best formula for potted specimens:50/50 mix of peat-based compost and loam-based (John Innes no.2,3), the appropriate amount of slow release fertilizer (for example Osmocote), 25% sand or grit. Bamboos are vigorous growers, so to maintain healthy growth remember to add more fertilizer when the first application has been used up. Add top dressing at intervals until the bamboo finally needs repotting. When the bamboo has filled the pot, either repot into a larger container or divide the bamboo, replanting a piece of younger growth as the new plant in the original container. Mulch around the base of the plant for winter with ornamental bark or gravel."

Don't know how long you have had it, but maybe the trouble is that it has used up its initial fertilizer and needs more.

Also, from About.com, check to see if you really have a bamboo:

"Before I can respond properly to your question, I need confirmation that your plant is truly a bamboo. There is a very popular plant called "lucky bamboo" that is not actually a bamboo at all and has very different requirements than a true bamboo. "

Check the link for the rest of the information.

Good luck!!!

Answer 3

It may need more sun, perhaps the flourescent lighting in the office isn't enough? Truly the only thing I know about those plants is that they need lots of water.
