Overall Satisfaction with BrightHR
I use BrightHR for my HR solutions. I never received proper training and I have to phone in when I have a problem. Sometimes I talked to very good staff with good knowledge of BrightHR & sometimes, in my opinion, the staff are deplorable. There are so many departments and telephone numbers and no one seems to know what is going on there.
Pros
- Managing straight forward absences such annual leave works well.
- Speaking to knowledgeable staff who understands the customer's challenges and who try to get a solution.
- Setting up and reviewing Employment Contracts and Employees' Handbook
- Update on Employment Law
Cons
- In my experience, it is quite difficult to set up new employees especially those with complex work patterns.
- I think improvement could be in the form of a proper manual that one can use instead of phoning in and being in long waiting queues.
- I was very surprised and felt betrayed to find out that contract with BrightHR was renewed automatically after 3 years without any reminder to the customer. And I also learned later that if you wish to cancel your contract, you have to do it 6 months prior to the renewal date. I would like BrightHR to send a reminder to customer and asked them whether they wish to renew their contract and do not take them by suprise.
- Improvement could be to incorporate increased annual leave due to length of service.
- Difficult question to answer as we are a Charity
