Doing it right! - Anonymous employee Brenthaven Employee Review

Depending on the department, flexible work hours and fun coworkers. Casual attire. Friday Happy Hours. Well made product, easy to sell the product.

The compensation was low for the amount of work and stress. The size of the company is like a start up, but the company has been around for over 30 years and management wants it to act like a large company without hiring more people. Big problem with burn out, stress, and low morale. General feeling like management and the executive team were only making decisions to benefit themselves, also felt like many managers had never managed people before.

Brenthaven provides a very relaxed, small company feel. All employees against different departments know each other very well and work to help each other in any way they can. Brenthaven offers a lot of offsite activities to enhance employee morale and bonding.

With every small company sometimes it is required of an employee to help out in a department that you don not necessarily work in. As this is typical of most companies, the time of being responsible for a temporary "support" position can be longer than desired. Also, it is hard to work your way up as there are limited positions available.
