Pros

Coworkers and students are great. You create a wonderful bonds and friendships. The instructors are very informed and up to date.

Cons

The role is a high pressure sales role. You're not there to "inform" potential students but to sell them on the program. There were multiple instances where the dean of admissions would pressure you into selling the program knowing it was not a good fit for a potential student. High turnover rate and poor benefits.

Pros

Great pay - 50k Free food once a quarter. Decent benefits

Cons

Let me start by saying that if your an ethical and moral person, look elsewhere. This was one of the worst jobs I've ever had. The management at Bryan does not give you a fair shot at succeeding. Once they have you in their sites, then you better immediately begin looking for a new job . Management plays favoritism and if your not one of their favorites, you won't last long. The style of management at Bryan is fear mongering, always holding your job over your head. All they care about is enrollments. You will frequently come across prospective students that you know deep in your heart do not belong in school. You also know inside that they will rack up more debt and put themselves in a worse situation than before. Well sorry folks... that doesn't matter, your expected to recruit and enroll at all costs. The finance department will be sure to take away any students you work so diligently to recruit. They are rude and will not lift a finger to help you in anyway. If they run into a tough situation, they will basically just find a way to make it nearly impossible for your students to attend. Overall, you may be attracted to the pay and benefits but if you want to keep your sanity and you don't want to fear how you will pay your bills once you lose your job, look elsewhere for employment. Also, I can assure that if your an ethical person, you will regularly go home with a guilty conscience.

Pros

The mission statement centers on the idea to unlock greatness, and this is something that we believed in and committed to as employees. We thought we were working in a school that would innovate the student experience and provides a creative learning environment for students.

Cons

The is a great place to get university teaching experience but avoid this as a career. The number of adjunct faculty is growing as the number of full-time declines. Student loads are increasing for faculty members and there is less time to spend on curriculum development and outreach. I have known faculty who receive praise and great review one week and are laid off the following week because the university had a bad quarter. The commitment is to profit and not education.
