Our Core Values
At Stellar Virtual, we are guided by five core values. For us, these values are more than just something in an employee handbook that you’ll only hear about during orientation. These values are the pillars by which we operate all aspects of our organization. We talk about them often, and we expect that every one of our employees not only talks about our core values but also acts upon them.
So, it’s important to us that anyone who joins Stellar embraces our core values.
- Kids First, Always: We make student-centered decisions and always do what's best for our kids.
- Respect: We assume the best of others and treat others the way we want to be treated.
- Create, Communicate, Collaborate: We create together, communicate openly, and work as a team to deliver more than we ever could individually
- Make Your Motion Matter: We work deliberately, efficiently, and with a sense of purpose to achieve great results.
- Go the Extra Mile to Deliver a Stellar Customer Experience: We recognize that every interaction, no matter how small or unrelated it may seem, is an opportunity to build trust and goodwill with our customers.
Technology Aspect
At Stellar Virtual, we are committed to equipping our employees for success in a virtual setting. For this purpose, we provide company-issued laptops that include essential software, security features, and internal support. Please note that this benefit is exclusive to our W-2 employees and does not extend to independent contractors (1099), seasonal staff, or unpaid individuals.
