Great culture, innovative approach, amazing people - we just happen to do recruiting
Pros
Not everyone's looking for a job to become their own entrepreneur. This is one of the few jobs that you can harness your ambition and get a chance to move up in an organization that is constantly in need of new leaders. It takes a very innovative company to embrace change the way Stride has - and people need to recognize that. Simple fact: 70% of Fortune 500 companies in 1975 have been replaced by more innovative and progressive companies. I come to work every day motivated to work with great, motivated people with amazing ideas and I leave work inspired to make it better the next day.
Cons
There are a lot of people bitter out there that the story here didn't work for them or the experience they had wasn't positive so they spend their career trying to drag us down. No matter how much Stride has listened and adapted to those concerns, you still hear old war stories from years ago saying that we're the same company, and that's simply not true. The con is that old rep that continually surfaces out there despite the changes we've made. I prefer to a company committed to getting better as opposed to one that refuses to change. Believe me, I've quit the company before and have come back because it's a rare thing to see this.
