CAREER PATHS & LEVELING

People know where
they're going.

Define IC and management tracks with clear levels and expectations. Career paths live inside departments, not in a spreadsheet someone forgot to update.

Most tools charge extra for this. We include it.

Lattice charges +$4/user/mo for their "Grow" module to get career tracks. BambooHR doesn't have them at all. Apext includes career paths, role leveling, and department structures at $5/user/month. No add-ons, no upsells.

What's built in

IC & Management Tracks

Define separate career progressions for individual contributors and managers. Each track has its own levels, titles, and expectations.

Role Leveling

Set clear levels with defined titles and descriptions. Everyone knows what's expected at their level and what it takes to reach the next one.

Promotion & Role History

Track every role change over time. Promotions, lateral moves, track switches. The timeline captures growth automatically.

Department Career Paths

Each department defines its own career paths. Engineering has different tracks than Sales. One framework, flexible per team.

How career paths connect to everything

Feedback is mapped to the competencies defined in each role level
1:1 prep surfaces gaps between current performance and next-level expectations
Talent reviews pull role context so calibration is grounded in real career data
Promotions are tracked on the timeline, creating a permanent growth record

Career paths included. No add-ons.

$5/user/month. IC and management tracks, role leveling, and department structures. All built in.
