I have been a member of their database for quite some time. They pay out anywhere from $40 to $200. It all depends on the company that they are conducting the study for. read more

I have been doing research studies at Bryles for several years. The check in process is easy and they run on-time. The ladies at the front desk are always very helpful. It's interesting to try new products and rate new packaging. read more

Been coming here for taste tests and surveys for almost two years. I've had a great experience here with the staff, receiving payment, and getting selected for several studies. I wish I lived a little bit closer and that they had more weekend studies. read more

Cons: Don't expect to make much money working here.. And there are no kind of benefits. Supposed to be "business casual" attire but don't worry everyone dresses how ever they want... Tights, stained shirts, tank tops, cowboy boots... Etc If you don't like smoke being blown in your face or personal space Beware. If you are looking for a job with career advancements.. This is not the job for you. Pros: Really laid back place to work at and make some easy money. They are pretty flexible and You can work weekends if you want too If you're into vaping then you are in luck, most of the people who work there vape all day during work hours. read more

Terrible. Don't waste your time and gas. Before covid they were great but after covid its terrible. And its not because its under new management or anything. The same people still work there. Twice in two weeks i have driven up there for a take home study, did the study (with issues in their end that took 3 times the allotted appointment time), and still did not get paid for it. So now i wasted my gas and my time to go there, i wasted my patience and time during the survey, and had to deal with a bunch of attitude, treating me like I'm a pain in their butt. They are so unprofessional. I had an issue in the middle of a study and after several unsuccessful attempts to fix the issue they just ignored me until I went away on my own. Still have not been compensated for anything. That is two studies in a row now that I have fully completed through to the end and have not been compensated. I say this after doing surveys here for years; I wont be going back and neither should you if you dont want to feel the same disrespect and wasted time. The gas there alone isnt worth the trip because they wont compensate you if god forbid they dont know how to fix their own problems. It wasnt just one person. There were at least three people the first time and four the second time, all of them having no clue what they are even doing. For the longest time i though the middle aged woman, shoulder length brown hair, was super polite and professional. But she was the absolute worst. I spoke to her twice about this issue and she said she would call me right back after discussing it with the people who handled my survey. Never got a callback. The second time I called she got an attitude with me and said the same thing. Still no call back. I'm so done wasting time, money, energy, and gas on this pathetic organization. Not worth it in any way. Im sure the only reason they dont have more bad reviews because they target lower class who are willing to put up with being treated like dirt in the off chance they get $40 here and there. I'll take not getting spit on over those slim chances now. read more

I just went in for a research study and was told that they're full for the study .. after driving for 25 minutes in heavy construction traffic. I called earlier in the day to confirm my study and she said I was confirmed. It wasn't just me there were a few people right when I came in that got denied. They shouldn't confirm so many people if they can't accommodate them. It's very unprofessional. I wouldn't recommend coming here.. there are better more professional places to go to. read more

Market Research studies are a good way to supplement income and get to have your opinion heard, but Bryles isn't worth my time, and probably not yours. Their screeners are excruciatingly long. The pay is meager -- compared to other similar firms. Ask them what they pay before you go through the screener -- they won't tell you. Chances are its $25 for a half hour no more than $50 for an hour. I love answering screener questions for 15 minutes then being told I don't qualify-- no thanks. read more

Very Unprofessional and Disorganized. While it is a good way to make cash, the last experience I had with this company was terrible. The phone calls were extremely unprofessional. During a voicemail that the center left me, mid-way through the rep started talking to other people in the call center and never finished the message to me. We weren't given all of the correct info in the original meeting. I was told I could return a product at a certain time, only to be told once I was at the facility that was not the case and nothing could be done. I did talk to a 'manager' but there was nothing she could do. She didn't even see to really be concerned. I'd think twice before having a product tested through this company. read more

The lady who works the front desk is incredibly rude and nasty. They have low-paying incentives, and if you are even 3 or 4 minutes late, they will not admit you to your study. Not even if you call to let them know you are on your way-and then, if you can't do a later study that same day, they mark you as a no-show. Not worth my time anymore. I'm over it. read more

Please, if you care that your time be honored, do not come here. I recently participated in the first 2 days of a 4-day taste-test study here. On Day 2, we walk into the testing room and are met with an announcement from "John" that Bryles' client had a shipment of product that they couldn't smuggle into the US in time, and therefore our 4th day of testing was to be rescheduled at a later date. Additionally, they changed the payment on us: rathern than keeping their commitment of $40 each for 4 days, they offered $25 for the first 3 days and $100 for the final day. Their reason? Their client couldn't use our results at all if the 4th day was omitted. The problems in this scenario are numerous. First off, we are not contracted to the client. We're contracted with Bryles, who quoted us $40 per day for 4 consecutive, previously-scheduled days. Some of us asked off of work because we make less than $40 an hour. Some of us hired babysitters that $25 a day won't cover. Additionally, what right does Bryles have to punish us for their client not being responsible enough to wait to start testing until ALL of their product is in the COUNTRY? This product was supposedly to be imported from France, and was denied by the French, British, and US government. We are not any of those governments. This is not our fault. And yet, if we can't make the 4th day of testing (which STILL hasn't been scheduled yet), we're essentially giving up the first 3 days of payment. I talked to "John" personally in that room about how unfair the scenario was to the entire testing community in that room, and was met with a shrug and a "Sorry, we can't do anything." So I went out to the front counter and spoke with the hiring manager, who again, refused to admit responsibility for violating our contracts. This is legally what's known as a breach of contract, and additionally, is extremely immoral, and just a shady business tactic. It's not our fault that your product was turned down by not 1, not 2, but THREE governments. I signed a contract stating $40 each for 4 days, and I expected it to be honored. Silly me for expecting this company to act professionally. Along with this review, I have called Jennifer, the acting manager, for Bryles, and still haven't gotten a response. Additionally, a report of this incident will be sent to the BBB. I don't expect a response in that regard, either. Shame on you, Bryles, for taking advantage of your testers. read more

I have done several taste tests here and have always had a great experience. Everyone I have encountered has been nice. Im going again today. read more

Most of the calls I get from this company are a scam - they ask a ton of market research questions to "qualify" you for studies (they're basically gathering their info right there for free) and then they say you don't qualify so they don't have to pay you for your info. When I was hired for two studies with them, they didn't ask that kind of info - just demo info. I've worked with other companies who don't try to scam people - they ask demographic information from you only and they do not try to get market research info from you without paying you.The pay is really low and most of the people in the waiting room look like they are addicted to drugs and just trying to get cash for a fix. With the other companies, when you do qualify for a study, they pay well and the participants all seem to be well-screened and sober. I think I'm going to block Bryles' number going forward - it's not worth it to deal with them. read more
