The interview process is a bit silly, a panel (more than 1 person) interview after a screening stage for an entry level position paying less thank $40,000 was overkill.

The leadership team lacks emotional intelligence and the capacity to care about their employees. There is nothing I like about executive leadership. My personal leadership team is great but they also struggle against executive leadership.

The new audience of customer, Generation-Z, cares about how employees at companies they patronize are treated. Employees are not treated well here and Gen-Z will notice and see through the performative allyship in the DEI space sooner or later.

Our team is the only good think about working at WorldStrides. The people at the lower levels do try to make the best of the situation we are in. We support each other and lift each other up when executive management lets us down and puts us down.

Positivity comes from your direct coworkers, management is negative and see employees as 'money grubbing whiners'. The CEO has told the entire company, when people asked for appropriate pay, that we "want money thrown at us" and he can "fire 100 people" for more money to make people feel badly.

The compensation is not equal to the work expected. More and more work is piled onto employees with no increase in pay or title. Any requests for re-evaluate of being paid value for output are immediately shut down. Yearly raises do not even cover inflation and cost of living adjustments.
