Pros

Pay was decent & people were nice

Cons

New CEO destroys careers and ONLY cares about pleasing shareholders and increasing his own pay package. Employees that worked there for years, decades even, were kicked out and replaced by cheaper labor and contractors in a desperate attempt to boost stock value. It’s a landscaping company. The stock will never come close to its overvalued IPO but that doesn’t stop the golden parachuted management from taking a hatchet to the lives of dedicated employees. The career path is very undefined and promotion from within is rare. Ever since the companies that merged to become BrightView did so, the toxicity of the work environment has increased consistently.

Pros

Good job and new manager has turned the place around.

Cons

1. Make you pay for take home company truck now used to be part of the job 2. Took away my managers sales bonus and he was not happy about it 3. All managers share a credit card for the entire branch 4. Bonuses are not what they used to be 5. Cuts are made company wide every quarter all to save Dales job and to show a shareholder profit yet the CEO makes millions with tones of bonuses and extras while little guys get crap pay
