Pros

I was very excited to start working at Keypath because of it's mission to serve colleges and universities and to increase opportunities for individuals through exposure to education. I urge you to not fall into this facade. There's no real communicated data metrics on number of students enrolled to colleges and universities each year for a reason. This company's mission is to increase profits for itself. The company does a great job of marketing itself through blog posts, social media and other outlets. However, these are not a good representation of the actual day to day in this company.

Cons

This company in the year that I worked here had two rounds of large lay offs. It seems that the company does not have a clear direction of how it plans to navigate the challenging and ever-changing post secondary education space, or does not have transparency communicating it down to employees.

The education industry to going through much change the past several years. And like many in the industry we have had to evolve to stay ahead of trends. Predicting the future is not always an easy task. We have made lots of strategic decisions the past several years. While many of these decisions have worked, some have not (but we continue to learn and evolve). We have communicated our strategy to the company at two separate off-site events and have had several podcast going over our areas of focus. While communication can be difficult we have tried to be as transparent as possible. Sorry your experience was not a positive one and wish you all the best. Steve

Pros

They present them selves as a Company who cares for their employees, yet there is such a disconnect from Cooperate and their offices located in other states.

Cons

Unrealistic expectations, and focus is more on the corporate office then their other location.

Thanks for your feedback and really sorry that your experience was not positive. We work really hard to connect our staff across the globe. But as you can imagine having offices in UK, Canada, Australia, and US can pose challenges. We do have weekly calls across the globe and have quarterly best practices meetings. It sounds like you were not part of these communications. Many employees have mentioned how collaborative and open Keypath is with communications, but as you mentioned we can always improve. I wish you all the best and thanks again for feedback.

Pros

They make their promises believable.

Cons

They will buy the company you work for and then lay you off. They'll say they don't want to continue business in your location or say your job was relocated. Then offer 2 weeks "severance." Oh and if you relocate for a job with them, they'll lay you off too. It doesn't matter to them. You're just a number.

I am very sorry about the change we had in your office. It certainly had nothing to do with the employees. Needed to simplify our office structure and consolidate into one location. We certainly tried to make this transition less difficult (and a bit different that your indicated) but I understand this change can be hard. I wish you all the best.
