Pros

Wide range of benefits, from 95% employer-covered healthcare to child and elder care, mental health care, and tuition-free education. Interesting and innovative business with goal of providing low-cost education to working adults. Flexible PTO and ability to work mostly remote. Strong emphasis on development and promoting from within.

Cons

Demanding environment with high bar for performance and speed. Could benefit from more diversity in leadership, particularly at VP and C-levels.

Pros

- Great benefits -- specifically the Step Forward Program - Incredibly intelligent, mission-drive team focused on maximizing social impact - Unique industry (EdTech) and business model - Fun, casual environment focused on outcomes rather than micromanagement

Cons

- Opportunities for growth can be sometimes limited simply due to size of company and demand (or lack thereof) for certain roles - Larger emphasis on DEI (though this something that is currently a work in progress at InStride)
