Pros

- You will meet some of the most brilliant and lovely people here - Get to work in post secondary - Great collaboration from every department. You can really learn a lot about the moving pieces of the company

Cons

-There is a lack of clear structure as to who does what. Often times you will find yourself doing a senior role and then once you input your opinion, you will be told to know your place and back down - VPs are conniving. Dicussions are done in an accusatory fashion and often times VPs will accuse you with no proof or false proof -Temporary place to work, no real growth track, although you will be told otherwise - Lack of human decency when someone is let go. There is no discussion about it and it's swept under the rug like they've never existed - People are let go for ridiculous reasons - No proper HR- and when we finally got an HR person they were not knowledgeable about laws and rules - Half the office has paid lunch and the other does not - Call centre mentality - management acts like this is the new Pearson, they hire buddies and old staff and despite trying to convince everyone that they are different, it's the same thing. - the stress levels are ridiculous- you WILL get sick - uneven workload despite being one team (significant difference in pay) - bosses like to gossip with you but will throw you under the bus if you say anything (we could throw you under the bus too, but there's a sense of loyalty) - harp about culture but it's NEVER demonstrated from top down. A great example of this is potlucks and the VPs bring nothing or a case of water. I get you're busy but it's being looked at and people are talking

Appreciate your comments and very sorry that you did not have a good experience. I don't want to discount your experience, but having talked to 100's of employees each year, surveying 2x a year and the amount of positive emails I receive we will disagree that your experience is similar to most. This is not to say we don't have faults and things to work on, but I do not believe your comments reflect our values and culture. Sometimes fit does not happen and I wish you all the best in future endeavors. I am always available to speak if you want to speak live. Steve.fireng@keypathedu.com

Pros

Strong remote‑first culture, which I appreciated.

Cons

I was one week into the job when my manager informed me that my pre‑planned vacation would not be approved. This trip was booked and fully paid for a year in advance, and it was meant to celebrate several major milestones in my life: my graduation, my 30th birthday, and my anniversary. Canceling was not an option without losing several thousands of dollars. During this conversation, I was told that new hires are only allowed to take two days off at a time. This policy was never mentioned during the hiring process, and I could not find it anywhere in my new‑hire paperwork. For a company that emphasizes work‑life balance and well‑being, the lack of flexibility was surprising and disappointing. Instead of working with me on a reasonable solution, they chose to deny the request entirely. As a result, I resigned. It’s unfortunate that the company preferred to restart the hiring process rather than allow one pre‑planned vacation. I do not recommend accepting a job at this company if you have any upcoming travel or personal commitments.

Thank you for sharing your experience. We’re sorry this situation was disappointing, particularly given how meaningful this trip was. PTO guidelines, including expectations for new hires, are reviewed during onboarding, and we encourage early discussion of any pre‑planned commitments. We appreciate the feedback and wish you all the best going forward
