Depends how much fluid you had to put in, maybe a leak in the system if the pedal feels mushy. Hard to say with the info given. Mushy pedal could be bad fluid or air.
The brake lite comes on when the sensor touches the rotor so it would appear to flash. On all the time could be any ones guess I'd say.
The low level of fluid would bring the brake lite into action.
I can see that the garage may have a good day, new brake pads, sensors, rotors, seals, master cylinder, lines etc.
So listen carefully to what they say and look at the parts they want to change.
