Business Outlook
Pros
The company advertises a good set of values to get people in the door. But they couldn’t deliver on a consistent culture where these values are actually displayed.
Cons
Too many to list. The biggest issue was a recruiting staff that operated on outright lies to get people through the door and a weak management staff that was overwhelmed and not fit for the role.

We are sorry to hear that your experience at Brightspeed did not match your expectations. We will take your feedback and use to continually improve our processes.
Many of the employees have been working together for a long time, most of them came from the initial merger between Lumen Technologies and Brightspeed. The general feel is good between peers and the friendships are great.
Cons
The company has terrible leadership and has treated merger employees as if we we were not a part of the company, even though we were the ones that stood up the new brand. Micromanaging leaders, they dont' trust or empower and caused a lot of friction by not backing employees. All values were lost in the merger.
