Unfortunately, STRIDE has claimed to be “changing” since the new executive team came into place. The management is a group of people who have not learned leadership or managerial skills. They have been promoted, not because of merit, but because of strong cliques up top.
This is the most startling statistic, and if this isn’t enough to keep you away from STRIDE, I don’t know what is.
There was a mass exodus of ~60 healthcare providers, along with the ENTIRE Human Resources team leaving, in the years 2023-2024. The HR team was fed up and realized STRIDE will never change. The providers were not aligned with STRIDE’s business modeling to patient care. STRIDE loves to market their mission as “patient centered,” when it is really the complete opposite. The health center is in financial turmoil, so the “patient centered” care that is on their social media is a complete farce. STRIDE gave providers unattainable visit numbers to churn and burn through so many patients throughout the day, so much so that the standard of care is in question for these patients and downright dangerous.
Throughout all of these people leaving, STRIDE’s way of looking at it was, “well they don’t belong here anyways, don’t let the door hit you on your way out,” not listening to its people and healthcare providers (most of them with much higher accolades than the half the executive team has). The executive team should humble themselves, admit they’ve made mistakes in how they treat people, and redirect, but instead they lost many good healthcare providers there at STRIDE for decades, along with an entire Human Resources team that tried hard to be on people’s side, but essentially gave up. The amount of deception and greed here runs deep here and it is a matter of time before lawsuits begin for STRIDE.
If you are considering this place for a long term stint, there’s a reason why everyone leaves. It’s not just a tough underserved patient population that burns people out. You will also have management and executive team that is working against you and does not listen. It is a wonder this place is still in business. Just close up shop. Eventually, STRIDE’s reputation will be unsalvageable. Get off the train that’s on fire before it crashes.
