Pros

Employee stock option program, free tuition benefits, highly educated workforce, clean and professional environment, New facility on Fountainhead Parkway in Tempe is very impressive.

Cons

It is hard to get in at the Apollo Group. I am a three time University of Phoenix Alumni, and it took me eight years of applying before I was made a formal offer.

Pros

Most of the benefits are good to have as an employee, depending on your manager dissgression felxible time is an ok benefit as well. Working with postive co-workers as a team.

Cons

Management is constatntly changing personal views of performance and purpose of job title. Many changes take place and it is management responsibility to help guide and assist in all changes which is not always demonstrated. There is a bias in the way the call center is sun by various mangement and teams, it becomes overwhelming and negative to work in. A low importance demand or indirect communication can lead to misunderstandings which only go against the employee.
