Poor Management

Pros

-Kudos to Strivr for figuring out phase 1 enterprise VR -Kind colleagues to work with

Cons

-The core product- 360 video - is gimmicky, over-priced and outdated. After the initial 'wow' factor it doesn't work. -Teams work in silos and don't cross-functionally collaborate -Founding members run a tight-knit circle and executive decisions are made despite employee pushback -A lot of 'drinking the kool-aid' type of culture with a strong-willed CEO but glaring issues of a first-time founder -Poor upper and middle management that does not reward talent / promotes those who follow management orders like bureaucrats rather than those who are truly talented and moving the needle

Losing great talent

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.

Bad Management

Pros

STRIVR is an innovative startup that has succeeded where others have failed-- starting from nothing and building a great product

Cons

Some shockingly bad management in the last few months. One bad hire brought the entire company to its knees.
