Behind the Scenes at BrightEdge

BrightEdge

We talk a lot about technology, but today we wanted to do something a little different and take you behind the scenes at BrightEdge. So, please check out our new video – Working at BrightEdge . In this video you’ll hear 11 BrightEdge employees share their experiences of what it’s really like building the best enterprise SEO technology. You’ll also hear our CEO and Founder, Jim Yu discuss BrightEdge’s value of People Success.

And, since it’s Thursday, we also wanted to get in on the #tbt action and share a video of Jim Yu from 2012, discussing all Five BrightEdge Values .
