Pros

The company location is easily accessible. The atmosphere inside the building is inviting, free snacks and drinks are provided. The company has some amazing people, unfortunately most of which have already left.

Cons

Negative work-environment, long hours, mostly without lunches or breaks for Operations Support staff. New people come in making the same as you, even though you've been there for for almost a decade. Managers are unprofessional, some Directors too. Lots of swearing behind the scenes, Managers badmouth their employees. President gossips and talks bad about her staff to other staff. In my last year with the company, I watched nine people leave and two were let go; that's eleven people. When employees give their notice, they're walked out; usually the same day or next day. It's completely embarrassing, unprofessional and unnecessary.

Pros

Great benefits, good pay, and management listens to feedback (rare these days)! Overall a professional and clean enviroment with a great culture! This workplace thrives on positivity and encouragement. They carefully maintain an uplifting enviroment with fun events, rewards and raffles, and even with who they hire (good vibes!). I trust the management team here, and even though I know there are some sour reviews from people who are no longer with the company, I ask that this not deter you from checking STRATA out for yourself. This is truly the best job I ever had.

Cons

They ask for diligent workers, but reward that diligence. At first I was a little intimidated by the workflow, but once I understood the ins and outs I felt confident and was met with success. The only other issue is that no one wants to leave! I mean it, if someone gets promoted into a position you can bet that they'll be there for a while. But the company is rapidly growing and new positions are being created. If you're looking for advancement you need to be willing to explore opportunities within the company, possibly outside your comfort zone.

Pros

There are many talented individuals at this company. Success requires a willingness to embrace challenges and grow. The company frequently hosts fun events, including an awesome Christmas party.

Cons

STRATA has significant potential for positive growth, but this will not be realized unless the company acknowledges and values its current talent. Recognizing hard work through meaningful salary increases, rather than vague promises of future raises, is essential. Employees are beginning to feel disposable, contributing to a shift in company culture as top talent departs. Key Recommendations: Foster a positive culture by demonstrating appreciation for your employees. Provide raises when warranted, rather than relying solely on bonuses or cost-of-living adjustments. Actively listen to employee concerns to understand the reasons behind turnover and adopt a proactive approach to retention.
