No matching RRSP or pension.
- Current Employee★★★★★
Pros
Top Hat has improved in so many ways over the last year. CEO (Joe) gets it. The needed common sense programs and policies being put into place. Stock for all employees. Remote first team is working, also a very nice office in Toronto if you live here. I've been in this space for a while and Top Hat used to have mixed reviews. While things could always get better, the reviews no longer need to be mixed. This company is on an upward trajectory.
Cons
People leave to go work at Shopify and Amazon a lot which causes chaos. Should introduce an RRSP match. Still working out a couple kinks, my sense is that these things are finally being addressed.
- Current Employee★★★★★
Pros
- great benefits - flexibility - people
Cons
- lots of change - quotas are not always achievable
- Current Employee, more than 3 years★★★★★
Pros
- Top Hat is trying to have a huge impact on an industry that needs transformation for the betterment of society & the world, and it makes it really easy to get up in the morning to go and do - Great startup culture, cool downtown office - New members of our leadership team that seems to be doing all of the right things - Your impact will be felt, unlike in larger organizations
Cons
- Won't lie, it's hard work. But you get out of this place what you put in - Because the industry is slow moving sometimes, it's hard to get quick wins. But the industry is changing, especially in the wake of COVID-19, and Top Hat is in a great position to reap the benefits of this incoming seismic shift
- Current Employee★★★★★
Pros
- Everyone works together on a mission that has meaning - You will be challenged and there will be support to ensure you meet it head on
Cons
- Not for the mundane or someone seeking status quo

Pros
How cool is it to work for a company making education better for millions of students? Very cool is the answer. Amazing leaders, even better managers, and a culture of openness, honesty, and care is a recipe for rewarding work. Top Hat truly invests in its people and their success / growth. I've never been happier in my career.
Cons
Some of the systems and processes have a few kinks that could be ironed out. But we're making great progress here!

Pros
Wonderful culture, excellent people, and strong leadership. Top Hat has gone out of it's way to make me feel valued and welcomed.
Cons
Nothing major, the benefits package could be better and pay is twice a month and not biweekly which is new for me, but not a issue.
- Current Employee★★★★★
Pros
There are tons of opportunities to learn and grow, if you want to take them. Should you choose to go above and beyond the daily expectations of your role, put your hand up for things or share ideas to drive growth, they are welcomed and encouraged and you'll find great opportunities to grow your career.
Cons
Things change quickly (although with new senior leadership it seems as though things should stabilize), be prepared to take a bias for action as there isn't time to sit and plan without fast execution. You need to hit the ground running and keep it moving.
- Former Employee★★★★★
Pros
Great culture and flexibility with work
Cons
Lots of hard work and overtime
