An Awesome Opportunity

Division manager

Business Outlook

Pros

I have been with Stride for 7 years and counting. Its been an opportunity to grow as a business professional year after year. The road to success has not been easy but has certainly given me a opportunity to execute, make cash, grow and work at turning my weaknesses into strengths. Stride is what you make of it. The growth is great and this is a place where you can put yourself on a career path quite quickly. The people push you to be your best and anything short of that is unacceptable.

Cons

People need to understand that what comes with opportunity comes hard work. This is not easy and it takes time and willingness to work on yourself as a business professional.

Great culture, innovative approach, amazing people - we just happen to do recruiting

Division manager

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Not everyone's looking for a job to become their own entrepreneur. This is one of the few jobs that you can harness your ambition and get a chance to move up in an organization that is constantly in need of new leaders. It takes a very innovative company to embrace change the way Stride has - and people need to recognize that. Simple fact: 70% of Fortune 500 companies in 1975 have been replaced by more innovative and progressive companies. I come to work every day motivated to work with great, motivated people with amazing ideas and I leave work inspired to make it better the next day.

Cons

There are a lot of people bitter out there that the story here didn't work for them or the experience they had wasn't positive so they spend their career trying to drag us down. No matter how much Stride has listened and adapted to those concerns, you still hear old war stories from years ago saying that we're the same company, and that's simply not true. The con is that old rep that continually surfaces out there despite the changes we've made. I prefer to a company committed to getting better as opposed to one that refuses to change. Believe me, I've quit the company before and have come back because it's a rare thing to see this.

A Negative Experience Overall

Practice manager

Recommend

Business Outlook

Pros

The training definitely helps develop a professional "phone" voice that you will use throughout your career. You get to meet a lot of new people.

Cons

Extremely high turnover rate. Spend 90% of your day calling hiring managers on a blocked number (they want nothing to do with you). Take advantage of naive job-seekers. The salaries aren't close to what they say in their "pitch." Unprofessional working environment. Practices some might consider unethical.
