Pluspunten

If your last name is Creamer you have a good chance at a C-suite position that you definitely aren’t qualified for. No Christmas bonuses but at least Damian can buy 3 cyber trucks!

Minpunten

They’ll say it’s work from home(it isn’t for at least 90 days and then probably longer until you kiss some posterior for management). They’ll tell you that the job isn’t that hard. It may not be but I gaurantee you’ll probably be the only one actually working. I hope you like gossip, drama, singing and adversarial HR team ignoring medical requests(my ada lawyer is already looking at a suit) don’t even bother responding Noelle. Your last name is the reason this company sucks. Hiring you as CPO a relative instead of someone qualified to run the business is the issue. The CTO is Damian’s best friend. The whole company is an ouroboros eating its own tail. Hope and pray you’re related to someone that works there because if you aren’t they are going to treat you like garbage.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. While I respect your perspective, I want to clarify a few important points for accuracy and context: On Cybertrucks: StrongMind does not own three Cybertrucks. We own one, which is being wrapped for promotional purposes as part of our student outreach strategy. On leadership and qualifications: I was appointed Chief People Officer because of my professional background, not my last name. My career includes leading large-scale people, culture, and professional development initiatives for Fortune 500 companies, as well as founding and running my own businesses. Beyond that, I have supported StrongMind from the sidelines in numerous ways for well over a decade and stepped fully into this role during a time when strong leadership was needed. Titles matter less to me than impact, and my focus has always been on building culture and supporting people. On family-founded companies: Yes, StrongMind is family-founded. That means we hold each other to higher standards, not lower ones. We work side by side, and anyone who knows me knows my door and inbox is open. Many team members bring concerns directly to me, and I take those conversations seriously. (noelle.creamer@strongmind.com) On HR and medical requests: It is not the practice of this company to ignore accommodations. We comply with all ADA requirements, and any requests for accommodations are reviewed and addressed through the appropriate process. On public money: StrongMind is a for-profit company. We re-invest the dollars we earn from our partner schools into technology, AI, curriculum, and many other services that directly support students and families. Every decision we make is guided by how to best serve them (not by siphoning resources elsewhere.) It’s too bad that during your time here, you couldn’t see the value in the contributions I’ve made or the people-first initiatives I’ve led. But to anyone reading this, I want to assure you that feedback whether positive or negative is taken seriously. We understand that no work environment will meet the needs & preferences of everyone and we get that different work cultures suit different people. Our leadership team is fully committed to listening, learning, and improving each and every single day. Every decision we make...from team structure to Cybertruck marketing investments...is about one thing: serving students and families with excellence. That mission will always guide us forward 💚 —Noelle Creamer, CPO

Pluspunten

StrongMind was founded by a true entrepreneur who still leads the company today, and that mindset shows up across the organization. Employees have real autonomy in how they work, and ideas are welcomed from every level. It feels like an all-hands-on-deck environment where people can make an impact. The mission is clear and meaningful. There is a strong focus on supporting students and families, which helps guide decisions and keeps internal politics low. The culture is positive and supportive. People are kind, collaborative, and leadership makes an effort to keep employees engaged and connected.

Minpunten

Like many growing organizations, there are times when priorities evolve quickly as new opportunities emerge. This can occasionally require teams to adjust focus or shift between initiatives. As the company continues to grow, there are opportunities to further streamline processes and maintain consistency across teams.

Thank you so much for taking the time to share this! We really appreciate it. I’m so glad the mission, autonomy, and overall vibe are showing through for you. That “jump in and make an impact” energy is exactly what we’re going for around here 😊 And fair call on priorities shifting. We’re growing, and we know that can feel fast at times. We are very dedicated to working on keeping things clearer and more consistent as we continue to scale. We are so grateful to have you on this journey with us and so glad you’re part of StrongMind! Noelle Creamer Chief People Officer
