Pros

I can’t think of any. Would give negative star if possible.

Cons

Unorganized company structure. No proper training or onboarding process for new hires. Lack of real leadership in management. They have been talking about plans and projects on improving things within the company for the past years but no real actions have been taken. Have to deal with bureaucratic crap all the time. Hostile work environment and covert workplace bullying and discrimination seems to be the norm here and people(from senior leadership to middle management) treats employees without respect. My manager always interrupts me when I talk and would never listen to or care about whatever I say. I had to explicitly tell him to stop interrupting and allow me to finish my sentence EVERY TIME. If you want to have any kind of company access to do your job, good luck on tracking people down to figure that out on your own because nobody seems to care or they are “too busy” to care. When I joined the company the rating was 3.1, and now is 2.9. This happened less then a year. Even recruiters are aware of how bad this company’s reputation is and that’s why they rebranded themselves from k12 to Stride and they hire recruiters to click and bait job seekers. Worst company I’ve ever worked for in my entire career.

Not What I Thought It Would Be!

Pros

Work-Life Balance due to remote work. Good working relationship with front-line teachers (My PLC), because we are all fighting the same battle and support each other.

Cons

CEO! He's a dog and pony leader. Low wages! Poor IT infrastructure. Do all you have to do to improve the passing average (to allow the CEO to show off). Lack of student accountability ("bump" grades). No advancement opportunities. Admin does not truly understand T-Tess evaluations in a virtual environment.
