Lying Blatantly to the Clients is Considered the Norm

Pros

The training was good. It allowed me to learn a lot of stuff in a short amount of time. I didn't expect that.

Cons

I don't like thinking about my time here. I did things that made me feel guilty, and I am not proud of them. The arrogant and terrible leadership asked us to lie blatantly to existing and potential clients. They had zero ethics. It was ridiculously complicated. I quit because I value my morals. I couldn't avoid my conscience anymore.

Asking for a Well-Deserved Raise Feels Like a Crime- Beware!

Pros

You will learn what you are worth, as they will never pay you enough. They just make excuses to avoid paying people fairly.

Cons

The leadership is awfully arrogant and mean. These horrible people refuse to give people the raises they deserve and always ask employees to wait a few more months. Take it from me, that wait never ends, but your patience with the insane workload will end. The stress is not worth what they pay you. Beware!

Kind + Loving Environment - GROWTH focused.

Pros

Peers and management deeply care about individuals and the impact you want to make on the world. I received nothing but love and encouragement throughout the entirety of my time serving at BTI. I was always able to take off when needed for personal things (family, trips, mental health, etc) and my compensation was great! The culture requires a growth mindset with an open heart and it’s wonderful if that’s the right fit for you. I cannot express the amount of gratitude I have for working here and leaving (for reasons not relevant to this review) was a difficult decision due to how amazing my experience was.

Cons

Lots of softwares / tech stack could be more consolidated, (people who aren’t tech savvy could struggle a bit) BUT the admin team are extremely responsive and helpful.
