Stride Consulting Reviews

Pros

- Non-hierarchal organization where all levels have input into almost all aspects of the company (e.g. Everyone is asked for feedback to talent review process) - People first mentality where the well-being and personal life of each employee is more important than work (e.g. Leadership emphasizing taking day or just mornings off if you're feeling stressed or anxious from election/pandemic etc) - Leadership actually makes difficult values based decisions (e.g. Rejecting clients that are not values aligned)

Cons

- The non-hierarchal structure can sometimes lead to slower or less clear decision making because leadership desires feedback and input from all employees

Pros

The people are amazing and the work is interesting and fun. Being such a collaborative environment means you learn so much about what the other teams are doing.

Cons

I honestly cannot think of any.

Pros

Fellow workers are really friendly and will jump to occasion for any help you need. The driving force behind is to do good which is well built into the very core of the company.

Cons

None, as it have been a pleasure working here

Pros

You'll see lots of different projects. People oriented culture. Great group of people

Cons

Moving from project to project can be disorienting if you want to be on something long term.

Pros

A group of very intelligent and passionate folks that honestly CARE. Truly a culture of learning and thought leadership.

Cons

Just as many other growing firms experience, handful of growing pains. Transparency from Leadership is extremely beneficial as we continue to improve Stride.

Pros

work life balance working to build management structure great people

Cons

Indecisive leadership recent attrition rigid non-compete slow to change / adapt business strategy isn’t applied beyond sales process

Pros

Rare opportunity to work at various top-rated companies across New York City and learn new technical stacks in the process. My experience at Stride allowed me to level up in a diverse skill set (e.g. DevOps as well as modern javascript frameworks) that isn't as easy to do when working on a single product team. Incredible group of co-workers who are a pleasure to work with and who care about technical excellence and about the success of the Stride/client team as a whole. Hands down the best group of people I've ever worked with.

Cons

Even with a supportive team of Stride devs, joining a client team as an outside consultant and adjusting to new culture, technical practices, etc can be challenging Stride does their best to allow developers to give input on where they are assigned but this is not always possible Because Stride teams embed with their clients, it is not a good fit for someone looking for a highly involved/consistent manager as who you work with day-to-day will change periodically when you switch clients
