Pros

Good, smart people mostly at the non-managerial level. A decent number of days off along with federal holiday's.

Cons

CEO is a mixed bag - plays Taylor Swift during company wide meetings, has claimed that "All lives matter", and constantly promotes how Strivr "sets up people for their next role." Seems pretty ignorant to the results of the surveys where compensation has been one of the major areas of improvement needed. Executive team had a lot of churn last year - 5 departures, including Chief Science Officer. A lot of key contributors left since start of 2022 which the CEO and HR chalk up to people being here for more than the average 2 years. HR team has all left except for the VP who doesn't address concerns or questions that are raised. One of the core values that remain is transparency... but there doesn't seem to be much of that going around for some blatant integrity issues from the exec team.

Pros

Great team to work with, and leadership is transparent about what’s going on within the company.

Cons

The company is phasing out its main product and restarting as a new SaaS-focused startup. This transition has resulted in significant employee turnover and layoffs.

Pros

Strivr is an exciting company that is constantly innovating and doing great things! Together we have built a really strong virtual reality platform and are exploring new frontiers of mixed reality in our products. All of the teams are very strong, and everyone is super nice, always eager to work together or hop on a call to chat. I've thoroughly enjoyed my time at Strivr. Also, for the last few months we have been operating on a 4-day workweek.

Cons

The team has become very lean in the last year. Although we still have many strong team members left, there is less room for exploratory work while everyone is focused on getting our new product out as quick and best as possible.
