Frequently Asked Questions

Career Progression Paths

Career growth at Nexthink is supportive, open and flexible. People are encouraged to take an active role in their development, and the company provides the structure and resources to help them move forward at a pace that feels right for them.

Growth starts with having regular conversations about goals, progress, and what someone wants to explore next. These discussions aren’t limited to yearly cycles — they happen throughout the year, so employees always know where they stand and what they can work toward. Nexthink complements this approach with quarterly check‑ins, which offer more frequent touchpoints to clarify expectations, adjust goals when needed, and keep development moving steadily. When it comes to promotions and compensation, decisions are based on real contribution — performance, market alignment, internal fairness, and how well someone demonstrates Nexthink’s values — ensuring the process remains transparent and grounded. 

Nexthink offers two main career pathsIndividual Contributor and People Manager. Both paths are equally valued, and employees can grow meaningfully in either direction. This gives people the freedom to choose the route that best matches their strengths and interests. 

There’s also room to move internally. If someone becomes curious about another team or role, they’re encouraged to discuss it with their manager. Teams work together to make internal moves fair, transparent, and supportive, so people can evolve without feeling stuck.

Finally, the work environment itself creates opportunities to grow. Nexthink is active in areas like AI, analytics, and digital employee experience, which means employees often take on new challenges, experiment with ideas, or help shape emerging products and solutions. It’s a good place for people who enjoy learning and want to work on things that make a real impact.

Learning & Upskilling Opportunities

Learning is a built‑in part of the job. Nexthink follows a simple development model: most learning comes from doing the work (70%), some from collaborating with colleagues (20%), and a smaller portion from formal training such as Coursera courses, leadership programs, conferences, or even language classes. These options help employees build new skills at their own pace. 

Nexthinkers can also explore new paths through project-based work, cross-functional initiatives, and international mobility — from short-term expat assignments to full relocations that open doors to new teams and global experiences. Internships and early-career programs give emerging talent real exposure to innovation and leadership from day one.

Mentorship & Coaching

Our learning ecosystem includes mentorship opportunities through the internally designed cross-functional NextLink program, manager and executive coaching, and development programs such as New Level Manager Training and NextLeader to help emerging leaders build confidence and capability. We also offer Coursera access for continuous learning and tuition reimbursement for master’s programs to support long-term academic and professional goals.
