Minpunten
I knew Academic Partnerships was not a good place to work when I was there but now that I am looking back on my experience at AP, I cannot express to you enough how bad it was. It is the most poorly run, mismanaged, immoral company I have ever been a part of. Executive leadership hires people on a whim, promises them the world, only to fire them a few months later. Decisions are not based on any metrics or data – They are based on how leadership is feeling that particular day. I came to work every day thinking that day could be my last. Leadership picks and chooses who they pay well, give raises, to, give bonuses to, give stock options to, etc. – There is no rhyme or reason to any of it. Pay ranges do not exist nor does equality of pay for those at the same level. There is zero professional development and zero career paths. They rarely hire within so they don’t care about investing in their current employees. Once you are in a job, you will be there forever (and you may even have to reapply for your exact same job – Yes, this actually happened to one department). Academic Partnerships does not have a good reputation in the education industry. When I was looking for jobs, I quickly learned that a lot of companies have a policy of not hiring employees from Academic Partnerships because they know what a toxic, shady, and poorly run company it is. I know HR will reply to this review saying that this isn’t true, they don’t “incentivize” employees to write positive reviews, etc.; however, it is all done under the table and “discreetly” (except for the fact that employees talk).
