Pros

The company is small with maybe 100 employees, so there was a lot of room for experience from the bottom up. You get to learn every step of the workflow since you were the only one managing a project/task. Great learning experience, however manual and tedious.

Cons

A place you can't climb the "corporate ladder" very far, this is a place you work when you've reached your career ceiling. Very slow career growth, if even. Not your usual Silicon Valley tech company. "Unlimited vacation" isn't actually unlimited, even if you get your work covered/finished while away from work. Upper management does not seem to care about their employees on the ground level.

Yes, a smallish company does not present the same corporate ladder climbing opportunities as one will find at a larger corporation. Employees who do well at BrightSign are open to taking on new responsibilities and thus expanding their career growth and enjoying new experiences along the way. If anyone doesn't feel the company's policies or benefits or anything else is clear, we highly encourage you to talk to your manager or the CEO.

Pros

The team I work on is great! I feel valued and appreciated. No micromanagement, you are treated as an individual and adult. Very family friendly and a work-life balance is supported and encouraged

Cons

Team bonding is not the same across departments. you definitely see other teams do more with each other, but I am sure if it was vocalized it could change. We also have a remote environment, so I do not really know anyone else outside of my department
