Rewarding work. Frequent organizational chnges
|
Of my 9.5 years most were phenomenal. Although there were organizational changes, it was east to adapt to new responsibilities and leadership. Until 2023 and 2024 when the new executive team leaned on multiple layoffs to solve problems that could have been managed in other ways.

Interesting Technology but Poor Work Life Balance and Dysfunctional Processes
|
Brightcove has an attractive veneer of being a leader in the maturing video platform space. However, Brightcove has cut back on innovation, reduced product R&D, and shifted to growth via acquisition.
It made a series of poor acquisitions that didn't align well to the company product line or vision, introducing integration headaches, and customer loss.
One of its most problematic issues is its high attrition rates across all levels - from engineers to sales to the executive suite and department level management. There was a revolving door in many of the department management figures, create a lack of continuity, vision, and constantly introducing new business applications and adjusting its model of working. This placed downward pressure on personnel who had to adapt to these ongoing challenges while working to satisfy customers at any time of the day, who were frequently frustrated with Brightcove's inability to deliver on its projects and product promises. This created an an environment of having to respond to endless customer complaints, sapping a lot of energy of its lower ranked personnel constantly "fighting fires". People get burned out in this kind of environment.

Great Culture in my experience
|
I worked here as an intern in college while taking classes as well. My managers accommodated my school schedule when needed.
Overall, I got to learn alot and get hands on experience in my field which led me to getting another job. I didn't get PTO buy hourly rate was excellent as an intern. Location is also great in Boston. I got to work a half day on Fridays but the 401k match here was meh, so I didn't sign up. Health insurance is your typical HDHP with an HSA/FSA.

Organizational issues
|
They have had a large number of people leave and the ones that remain aren't sure what they're doing. It's very chaotic. Until they put the right systems in place, it really won't change.
