Management are much better salesman than they are true leaders or businessmen. Little to no respect for most employees, as several emotional outbursts have demonstrated. CEO has burned many bridges for potential partnerships and clients, and with former employees, due to emotional decision making and poor judgement. Bad rep in the industry can be a hurdle when pursuing your next job. Many companies are aware of the cornering and aggressive sales tactics used by BrightScope, as well as the personality flaws of management, and take extra caution in evaluating your own moral fiber. Unless you are an executive or programmer, do not expect decent pay. Majority of employees make ~$15/hr. Executives, and persons with dirt on certain management, make an excessive amount of money. Do not get tricked into working here - hold off if you can. There are PLENTY of other opportunities, just look harder. Ultimately, the turnover is ridiculously high (something near 20%), and for good reason. People constantly leave for greener pastures, and NEVER regret it. CEO will sweet talk you all day, but when you put in your 2 weeks for a better opportunity, you suddenly become a terrible employee that he never wanted.
