      Pros

      I have worked for Bright Horizons for almost a year, and I am so thankful to be apart of a community that values people first. The children, families, and teachers go above profit. They work with teachers to build goals and professional development, and strive to create partnerships with the families. I know the management puts the employees best interest in the forefront of what they do.

      Cons

      The only cons are that we need more teachers. When we don't have fully staffed sites, sometimes plan time gets taken away and that can lead to teacher burn out.

      Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback as a Bright Horizons employee; we definitely think that this is a great place to work and are so glad to hear you think so too! Absolutely you are in a special place, with daily opportunities to enjoy a collaborative and caring work environment based on our HEART principles. And when those challenging moments occur (you never quite know when they will strike in the ECE world!), it is so important to have the support and understanding of those you work with. Thank you for your contributions towards making Bright Horizons such a wonderful place for our children and families.

      Pros

      Do hire a diverse population of teachers in terms of age, gender ethnicity and orientation. Children as always are there if you're doing this job you love kids

      Cons

      Most sites do not offer a set consistent schedule, using rotating shifts. The lack of staffing and support will force staff to also never be able to plan things such as break time. Rigid with sticking only to curriculum from Company book even on days when severely understaffed. Even if you are hired specifically for a particular classroom where you are most familiar and best skilled to work, they will often push you into things such as infant or toddler even if you have physical limitations such as back, bending or carpal tunnel. Very inflexible about your PTO if it doesn't fit in

      We appreciate you taking the time to provide your feedback. We definitely understand that the ECE field can be demanding and want all employees to feel supported in doing such important and meaningful work; initiatives that promote a sense of work/life balance and integration are so important as a way to show employees are valued as people, first and foremost. Bright Horizons does continuously analyze the compensation and benefits offered to employees to ensure that we are competitive. We encourage you to reach out to us at wearelistening@brighthorizons.com with more details of your concerns at your location so that they can be addressed directly.
