Pros

Leadership understands the importance of keeping their employees happy. The CEO encourages people to work less than 55 hours a week, and if you're not, to reevaluate why you're working so much. There is a culture of continuous improvement throughout all departments within the company. We're fully remote, and dedicating resources to ensure that people are happy working remotely. The leadership team is beginning to travel around the US to encourage the team to meet up in physical spaces. Our mission lives close to many employees hearts, and many people are driven to help people. We are truly helping parents and children get through some hard times.

Cons

Deadlines sometimes exist and are a necessary part of the sales cycle here. Thankfully, they are infrequent.

Cons

>Disorganized systems >Racist inequitable treatment among employees of color >Lack of work/life balance >Lack of transparency >Completely incompetent management >Lack of accountability >Blatant favoritism >Unfair and unequal salaries for employees who work the same position and have equivalent credentials >Turnover rate is very high >Very deceptive and dishonest marketing. They dismiss negative reviews as reviews that are simply disgruntled employees who need to vent and say that for every negative review, "there are so many employees that have positive experiences". They want a higher glassdoor rating in order to encourage more applicants to apply to this dysfunctional company >The Brightline NY glassdoor page is a misrepresentation of Brightline as a company as a whole. This glassdoor page is titled"Brightline company in New York" only and suspiciously mostly has the highest ratings. >I urge you to go to the glassdoor page that is titled "Brightline" and has a 3.8 star rating which is a much more accurate representation of the "Brightline" experience. Most of the negative reviews accurately capture the ongoing negative issues that persist at Brightline
