Once great and thriving company.... run! - Early Interventionist Bright Start Employee Review

As a mother, I've always put my kids first. This job allows me to continue doing that while allowing me to have a career. Bright Start allows flexible hours, working from home, a communal office space, 24/7 help from supervisors and CEO's, and compensates for mileage! I have been at jobs where I felt less-than, guilt-tripped, and unsupported. Bright Start is the opposite! I have a rewarding, supportive job that prioritizes work/home life balance. I can't imagine working anywhere else <3

I know it sounds crazy, but I haven't experienced a Con yet. Bright Start aids employees coming in and moving on to other opportunities. When Bright Start makes a change, CEO's and supervisors do their best to give lots of notice via email and text. I think one time Bright Start gave employees short notice on the change in health insurance benefits, but that's the worst of it. To do this job, employees definitely have to be fast learners, customer-service ready, very organized, and love working with kids. I have seen coworkers start this job and struggle with the caseload; again, Bright Start continues to support their employees' education within this field. Make sure you're ready because it's game time!

The program (early intervention) is a great help to families, funded through Medicaid and the federal government.

This company is ALL about the money. Services are billed at over $100/hour, but employees work 50-60 hours a week for a wage that is barely livable. I witness MANY employees being fired with no notice for their health concerns or even for having an interview with another company. You are sent to do home visits into terrible neighborhoods and dangerous situations with barely any training. Any children who live in nice neighborhoods are reserved for the supervisor's caseloads. The company violates DDSN and BabyNet guidelines left and right, and encourages staff to commit fraud.
