Excellent opportunities to advance. Small company willing to expand into new networks. Lean team and very nimble.

Small team with limited resources. Constantly changing locations. Questionable reputation in the marketplace. Difficult to sell into new business based on lack of brand recognition.

Pros

The AlsoEnergy side of the business is still solid but lack of support and resources since acquisition has made that side of the business stagnant.

Cons

Management is completely disconnected with the rest of the organization. Key personnel continue to depart and remaining employees are overworked. And to top it all, no appreciation from management upon your individual or team's success.

Thank you for your positive feedback about our management team and Stem's focus on work-life balance. We're glad you found your experience valuable and we understand your concern about workforce reductions. Please know they are VERY difficult decisions that we make only when necessary. We are hopeful that with the recent progress the company has experienced, those decisions are behind us.
