More worried about getting paid than placing you
I think the concept of Pathrise is great. However, their revenue model is terrible. First off, it's extremely financially unattainable even if you do get a job because you will owe them between $7,000-$24,000 once you get placed at a role that pays $2,500/mo gross. Which is already a very low paying job not taking into account the repayment to Pathrise. Secondly, they make sure without a doubt that you will owe them no matter what. They post it everywhere, they constantly talk about it, they talk about it so much that I felt more intensity signing up for them than buying a home. Third, their customer service/account management is really subpar. They don't know which account manager is talking to who, they don't give you any direction, their platform is buggy and is hard to navigate. Fourth, the resources are not that great, so really you're paying for the cost of mentorship which you could get career coaches for significantly less. They also follow a "teach you how to fish" model, which is fine, except for the cost, I would 100% expect them to help me get fish too (even at the $7k level). In the end you're better off putting your money into other networks and career coaches.
