Started off great, ended poorly

Pros

Great benefits, and serious about unlimited PTO - had a great work life balance, sometimes more "life" than work! Completely remote if that is what you like. Great coworkers who care about you.

Cons

It started off being an incredible opportunity and I had lots of work and engaging discussions - toward the 2 month mark of me being there, it was clear there was no strategy for the entire company; it was just focused on the big clients and everyone else was encouraged to "pave their own way" within the company, which is just so vague. You as a CEO cannot tell all your employees to be firestarters and look ahead for problems; that is the nature of having different types of employees. I started off and realized toward the end of my employment that I had learned almost nothing, and felt I actually regressed. I spent more time outside and not doing work than I did doing work, because it seemed like nobody really needed me. And then the firing spree came, with little to no explanation and just a smile from our CEO saying "its all love, we need you guys to do better!!" but with literally no guidance as to what to do next. I had employees tell me I was honestly better off without the company, I felt like I could have spent my time at literally any other job and gotten a better work experience.

Pros

The benefits & coworkers are nice.

Cons

Red flag use of the theme of "we are a family" type of environment. Increased instability in job security as client churn increases. Poor communication and direction. As someone else stated, you do not know which version of the CEO you will get from day to day. Processes are inefficient or not followed.

Thank you for your candid feedback here. I am so sorry you had the experience you had, as a small company we strive to build a world class work culture but as the market and world shifted rapidly the last several months we clearly fell short. It's never fun when we have to say goodbye to team members due to market conditions and we are going to take a deep look at your feedback and figure out how we can learn from it, resolve it moving forward and continue to create the best environment we can, even during difficult economic market conditions. We wish you the best in your next chapter.

Mistaking Motion for Progress

Pros

Some awesome remote co-workers. Benefits fully paid by the company. Excellent parental leave policy, at times an amazing work atmosphere.

Cons

Right now the company does not live up to its core values that are constantly touted and repeated. Boneheaded initiatives get pitched to team members without instruction or purpose. Lots of do "X" or you'll be let go, like time tracking, yet most people still don't track time accurately and have not been fired for it. Leading by fear right now as both employees and clients are leaving. You never know what version of the CEO you will get, again leading to a fear driven culture.

Thank you so much for your tremendously candid feedback. We are deeply sorry for the experience you had during your time at Stealth. We grew rapidly amidst a changing world and those growing pains got the better of us in some areas. We are actively and aggressively working to fix issues that came up during that time and have made some great progress. We are not perfect but we are listening to all feedback and calibrating the best we can to make the best work environment possible. The world and economy has shifted at a break neck speed and we're doing our best to keep up, so we deeply apologize if we were not able to do so fast enough during your tenure with us. We wish you the best of luck in your next chapter.
