What do you value most about Brightline West's culture? What sets it apart from other places you’ve worked?
I value working in a culture where I can come from contribution, have autonomy in my role, and be able to grow and develop personally and professionally. I find all of these values, and more, working with Brightline West. I am never criticized for asking clarifying questions, I am encouraged to bring my ideas to the table, and I can express how I want to grow in my role and how it's supported. What sets Brightline West apart from my previous employers is the feeling of being a part of a project that extends beyond myself and is making a difference for future generations. You are easily able to contribute to a project when you believe in the vision, mission, and values of the company.
What’s one thing you would want a candidate to know about what it’s like to work at Brightline West?
I speak with candidates everyday and the one thing that I deem necessary to talk about early on is our culture. I love our culture- it's growth, it's connection, it's unity. I work with the best people and we all strive to create a culture that brings us together, whether that's supporting each other through challenges we encounter or celebrating the individual or team wins we have. And because our culture is important to me, I do my best to make sure that the candidates understand and support that energy.
