Pros

I have been working with Brightside for 11 plus years. I have seen first hand how much the company has grown. They show appreciation to their staff and helped me further my education. I received my CDA through a program that the company offers. I have learned so much while working here and the work atmosphere keeps me coming back. If you have a passion for working with children I recommend giving Brightside Academy a try.

Cons

To give raises more often.
