Pros

Working from home is okay, Some of the people in some of the teams are really lovely.

Cons

They micromanage your day and check in every half an hour of how many calls you’ve made and what you’re doing. They seem to care more about activity and the amount of calls you make rather than what actually works to get enrolments. The CEO said he wanted to give students the choice on how we communicate with them but that’s all out the window now. Everyone needs to get calls all the time and you’re expected to ask 41 questions of the prospects which just annoys them and makes the Prospects feel like you’re a sheister. The product (the postgraduate courses) require a lot of independent learning from the student. They want us to hold the students hand all through the enrolment journey up until census and then the student gets a rude shock when they realise they’re fully on their own and there’s almost no academic support available. Keypath say that there’s all this support and it’s really great, but the #1 complaint I get from students is that it’s totally different to the enrolment process and they’re on their own and none of the teachers want to help them. The wage is sooooo low for what you do and what you need to know about the courses to be successful. 55k a year (because it’s almost impossible to make commission) when the same job at a real university is 75k just don’t work here it’s not worth it.

Thank you for your feedback and sorry you did not have a great experience. Many of your points do not reflect how we train/manage so I would suggest you speak to your manager on many of these concerns. I will follow-up with team as well. Wish you all the best and seems like you are still working at KP so am hopeful many of your concerns can get resolved. You can always email me directly as well. 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
