Pros
The impact we are making in children's education and career pathways is wonderful.
Cons
Stride has a toxic work culture! You never know when you will get laid off, they claim to be diverse and inclusive but they are not, 19 senior executives in the company with 4 women and only one minority woman, they are a for-profit company and value profits rather than their employees, they focus on recruiting rather than retention. The new CEO has created a culture where people are afraid to speak up at meetings because they are afraid to lose their jobs. The CEO lacks empathy, inclusiveness, open-mindedness, and humility. There is no room for career progression. They will pile on jobs on top of the one you have and not increase your pay. They're an education company but will not pay employees when they obtain certification or degrees in hopes to get promoted or an increase in their salary. They always lay people off right before the year ends to avoid paying bonuses and to keep more profit for the business owners and shareholders. They have managed to make billions off of education which should be provided to children for free on top of treating employees like they are just numbers.
