Here's how to spot the difference and ask the right questions to understand what your provider will actually deliver.
Translation: "We put the burden on your employees to obtain a letter of credit, cover overages, and if they go into debt, they should have made better decisions."
Translation: "We're a discount aggregator that leaves employees confused and overwhelmed with thousands of unvetted choices."
Translation: "We provide one time, 1:1 coaching with outsourced and uncertified 'career coaches' that we repurposed from supporting high school students — not working adults."
Translation: "It's up to you to find out from employees how far they are in their programs, what skills they've learned, and what jobs they can move into."
Translation: "16 pathways just lead to 16 jobs, not the dozens of jobs where business teams need to hire people now."
