Pros
Some of the kindest, hardworking, mission-driven folks doing the actual work.
Cons
Yes, I was laid off so I'm bitter. But I had valid concerns before leaving, the layoff was just an added shock. - Very low pay. The ranges on Glassdoor are way over actual pay. Combined with no job security, it's risky. - Little career growth. Yet still a ridiculous amount of hierarchy? - Almost no racial diversity, and none in senior leadership, with no plans to fix it. - No accountability for upper management who pushed for excessive growth despite constant concerns and operating outside our means. - Lack of resources and training, especially for hiring partner growth. - The parent org Stride is cutthroat and calls the shots so the mission and values are just lip-service. We were read a form letter in a 15-minute Zoom and instantly deactivated from all services when just a week earlier at our all-team, they were talking about adding 6 new cohorts. And some supervisors weren't even told that their reports were being let go and found out via LinkedIn. - Delusional vision and toxic positivity doesn't seem to address the realities of the market we were operating in.
