Review from Sales Dept · Posted 9 days ago

I have no compensation package

Review from Operations Dept · Posted 10 days ago

the 401k and the paid holidays

Review from Sales Dept · Posted 11 days ago

The company is consistent with yearly raises. My PTO is very good as well.

Review from Sales Dept · Posted 11 days ago

My weekly pay is good just wish my incentive pay was better.

Review from Customer Success Dept · Posted 11 days ago

The wage was fair and the bonuses where welcomed.

Review from Operations Dept · Posted 11 days ago

The variety of options to choose from.

Review from Admin Dept · Posted 12 days ago

it is easily accessible to all employees

Review from Operations Dept · Posted 12 days ago

It is broken down so that i can see where every dollar is earned

Review from Sales Dept · Posted 12 days ago

I was taking the GLP-1 for weight loss. This has worked well for me, and I am sad to see that go away for weight loss but understand the cost to companies.

Review from HR Dept · Posted 12 days ago

Company match on 401k plan.

Review from Customer Success Dept · Posted 12 days ago

it is a fair compensation

Review from Design Dept · Posted 14 days ago

Our insurance coverage is great.

Review from Finance Dept · Posted 15 days ago

Being able to earn a nice bonus due to the companies' success

Review from Product Dept · Posted 15 days ago

My Incentive plan, along with the benefit package.

Review from Operations Dept · Posted 15 days ago

the 401K And company stocks.

Review from HR Dept · Posted 15 days ago

the bonus, when it pays

Review from Finance Dept · Posted 15 days ago

Review from Design Dept · Posted 15 days ago

quarterly bonuses, 401K, FSA and medical coverage

Review from Customer Success Dept · Posted 15 days ago

The amount of time off.

Review from Design Dept · Posted 15 days ago

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

We could have better pay.

Review from Design Dept · Posted 11 days ago

Fair pay for the job that's being done, no raise from mgmt. - ever. only cost of living increase yearly (that's under the of inflation, costs rising don't match at all. "Rich get richer - rest of us suffer", no other choice

Review from Admin Dept · Posted 11 days ago

I have no clear direction or expectation of what i should be doing better or differently or what I'm doing well. there's 0 communication

Review from Design Dept · Posted 12 days ago

With my seniority and experience I am paid less for the same or lesser work from my younger counterparts. I could move to a different company and make more money with equal or lesser responsibilities.

Review from Admin Dept · Posted 14 days ago

A pay raise that is comparable to the cost of living. a five-cent raise is utterly disrespectful.

Review from Sales Dept · Posted 15 days ago

Overall compensation is skewed towards a Field Bonus with base salary being below industry standards. If the criteria to meet the field Bonus were consistent year over year and reasonable overall, my feelings would be different.

Review from Executive Dept · Posted 15 days ago

Undervalued is the efforts going in and out and seems no positive results happen. Compensation, if possible, small increase for all who have some sort of salaries. at least something to offset the current affairs of the cost of living.

Review from Sales Dept · Posted 15 days ago

More clarity of "Bonus Plan". What steps in compensation measures will BFS take to ensure leadership and team members stay competitive in the current market.

Review from Operations Dept · Posted 15 days ago

better hourly pay for work done.

Review from Sales Dept · Posted 15 days ago

a good raise at the plant

Review from Operations Dept · Posted 15 days ago

In order to recruit new OSR's for our location I took a new position to accommodate the new hires. This came with a substantial pay cut and loss of some benefits. This was never recompensed. Will be fully retiring the end of this year. Time to move to a new chapter for me.

Review from Sales Dept · Posted 15 days ago

through market research i found that I'm underpaid and completely over worked. The company and operations of this site depend solely on my office, and I don't feel I'm being compensated properly for the task at hand.

Review from Operations Dept · Posted 15 days ago

The current economic strain in prices is outpacing our earnings. The industry is hurting and seeing more company "acquisitions" maybe a strategy to overcome the current headwinds, but it's difficult to support a million dollar plus purchase when you can barely afford your groceries anymore

Review from Admin Dept · Posted 15 days ago

underpaid would be the best way to answer

Review from Operations Dept · Posted 15 days ago

The company gives no real merit raises. I was told they only give raises in March, which are tied more to inflation than anything. The raises they give are a maximum of 4 percent so if you earn $20/hour, you don't even get a dollar raise.

Review from Admin Dept · Posted 15 days ago

Im in sales to be in control of what I earn. I will soon be earning plenty.

Review from Sales Dept · Posted 15 days ago

Having my pay increased would help with that.

Review from Design Dept

incentive program, job distribution mix.

Review from Design Dept

Unfortunately - no one seems to be able to make ends meet these days. More political than anything, in my opinion.

Review from Admin Dept

Annual wage increases that extend beyond the standard cost of living. For example, wage increase that occurred March 2026 was actual 2%. At this rate, the longer I am employed here, the more towards poverty I slide. More to share, please reach out.
