Pros

Work / Life balance from working at home.

Cons

If Brightspeed were a compass, it’d be spinning like a tipsy top. Leadership? More like a game of darts—blindfolded. Knee-jerk decisions? Check. Fire drills? Daily routine. And rumor has it they’re planning a corporate garage sale: “Everything must go in three years or less!” Meanwhile, work is outsourced faster than a pizza delivery on a Friday night—resulting in layoffs that feel like a corporate exodus. Escalations? They’re like hot potatoes at a family picnic—everyone tosses them around until someone reluctantly claims ownership. As for newbies, they’re thrown into the deep end without a life jacket. No training, just a shadowing program that turns overwhelmed employees into reluctant mentors. Overall? Picture chaos, add a dash of disorganization, and voilà—you’ve got Brightspeed.

Pros

The few Managers that care about their employees

Cons

Morale at all time low, along with a very anxious culture. "Leadership" with no leadership skills, no processes in place, firedrills. Lack of listening to employees that have ways to win. Too many 'yes' folks and not enough, 'is this right for employees and the business' folks. People in higher up positions that shouldn't be. Complete and total lack of accountability on upper managements part. Everything is shoveled down to others with demands to work weekends and be on call 24/7/365. Unrealistic goals constantly set that make no logical sense - the data even shows this. No raises, no bonuses (except for management, maybe) due to poor 'leadership' over past years. New 'leadership' is operation based, so anyone doing any actual work is now drowning in reports that get looked at once then they change their mind about what they want. Utterly ridiculous and shameful.
