Pros

Keypath is not only a place for a job, but a great platform where you can build up your career. Starting with a relatively small sized team Keypath has so much success in the last few years, and now the business has more than 600 employees globally. I have been working with the business almost since its start, and I am fortunate enough to grow up with the business together, as an employee and also as a witness for all these achievements the company went through. Thanks to Ryan and his leadership team, everyone in Keypath is taken good care by the company. Everyone in this place is super supportive, no matter whether you just started from day 1, or you have been with the company for 5 years. Not many CEOs like Ryan who is so down to earth, approachable, open arms for all fresh and new ideas, and will be willing to bring the discussion further though his calendar is already full on. Keypath is place where people feel they are working with the business together, not working for the business; this obviously creates great culture that everyone will be accountable for what they do, and everyone will be able to do what they do the best. Recently Keypath won the " best place to work " which is a great demonstration to what they have been doing for years. This People First company is the right place for anyone who has strong interest in higher education. I will definitely recommend this company to anyone and everyone.

Cons

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
