Pros

There are no pros to share.

Cons

The lack of direction and business strategy is astonishing. If you don't value people's professions, then why should anyone work here? I got hired with the expectation that I could bring value to Stride but instead was constantly left in limbo. There was no communication from higher-level management on what our goals needed to be or any systems put in place to meet said goals. Never would I recommend a designer, a researcher, a UX strategist, or any related professionals to work for Stride. The CEO is anti-user experience, anti-teacher, anti-employee, and PRO profit only.

Pros

Work/Life balance has never been better for me. I work with a great team and love my job.

Cons

I wish the policy for working outside the country had not changed, but this does not impact me personally.

Pros

Flexibility and working from home. Safety at work. Great supportive environment for last few years.

Cons

Cost prohibitive testing travel expenses that are not immediately reimbursed. Required to leave home for 2 weeks. Sometimes policies are not enforced to keep funding for students that are not a good fit for online learning.
