Pros

Great environment that allows employees have their say and boost their creativity by enabling them to do what they think will boost the company on fridays. Brightpearl also hosts many events at their offices where healthy talks about practises in the software industries are carried and where new technologies are discussed. Brightpearl also allows employees to diverge in to multiple technologies.

Cons

Still a bit small company therefore sometimes some activities have to be limited due to constraints in time and resources.

Pros

was hired as remote and get to have that honored, but have been openly told no career progression because of remote status. decent pay

Cons

Leadership instability: Seven manager changes during my relatively short tenure. Unrealistic targets: A sales quota set at 1,100% growth (not a typo). Slow product development: Getting anything actioned on the product side takes far too long. Product management turnover: Three product manager changes, resulting in no meaningful deliverables in over three years. Misaligned hiring priorities: Greater emphasis on DEI optics than on hiring people positioned to drive growth. Internal vs. customer focus: More energy spent on internal events than on product enhancements. Lack of accountability (the biggest issue): No one takes ownership. Responsibility gets passed around constantly — for example, client cancellations going unprocessed because they impact someone's numbers. Managers have openly encouraged pushing the work onto someone else rather than handling it.
