Pros
If you're lucky, you get a handful of opportunities during your career to work on extraordinary products alongside a top-tier team. Strive gave me that. The technology is unique and is catching the eyes of sports scientists around the world. No other company is bringing awareness to neuromuscular health. Strive is uniquely positioned to do that. Pros: - CEO and CFO are the best I've seen; they know how to fundraise and steer the ship through tough times; they make difficult calls, even when unpopular but always do what's right for the company in pursuit of the mission - Technology is unbelievable; it's in use by pro athletes in almost every league around the world, enhancing performance and preventing injuries - The engineering team can move quickly - Accountability and ownership are engrained in the culture which helps them attack their goals at a rapid clip - Titles mean nothing; if you're talented and work hard, you will be noticed and rewarded
Cons
- Strive is a startup, so if you're looking to rest and vest, you'll be gone in a heartbeat (or a muscle contraction) - Strive has many paths to growth so the nature of the work is ambiguous; if you're the type of person who needs clarity and a perfect 10 year roadmap, this place is not for you
