Great Place to Build Skills
Pros
While promotional opportunities in your specific field at DeVry might vary, it's an excellent environment for developing valuable business skills like project management, leadership, technical proficiency, and business communication. The strong benefits and positive interaction with colleagues make it a great place to work. DeVry, in my experience, is great with a work-life balance and really cares about its employees.
Cons
While DeVry offers opportunities to develop valuable business skills, career growth within your specific field through promotions and role changes might be limited; after all, not every position or department will always have an opening. This could mean that while you gain skills like project management and leadership, your direct professional trajectory in your chosen area might stagnate. DeVry focuses a lot on talent and employee development, but this may not turn into higher pay and promotions for long-standing employees. The small but mighty teams have to have an opening available for mobility to occur.
