Pros

Benefits, working from home during pandemic

Cons

The job is repetitive, bosses are rude and disrespectful. They only care about numbers. Being bullied into working more hours and when you ask for time off they want you “remember what you signed up for when you took this job”. One Saturday a month turned into one Saturday a month, plus working the Saturday’s before the session starts (sessions start every 8 weeks) and then begging for OT all the time. This job is you live to work and will drain you of your energy. Turn over rates high, that’s why they’re always hiring.

Pros

Good benefits, decent pay, remote due to COVID

Cons

Very little room for advancement unless it was already predetermined you were getting the job. Drink the kool aid, smile, never disagree and it could be you! Speak your mind and you’ll be an outcast. Very very very sales heavy, even though they try very hard to mask it as service. Predatory marketing and recruiting tactics. Notice a lot of positive reviews from marketing people. Trying real hard to improve brand reputation.

Pros

The only pros to this organization is leaving it.

Cons

Where to start? This organization is corrupt. They're greedy and they don't care one bit about education. They care about the bottom line and treat employees like robots. It is SALES and that is all. Education isn't even in the top 5. They care about selling education at a ridiculous cost and claiming that they're value driven. Their values are making money and being profitable. I feel sorry for students who think they're getting a good education. They won't be able to pay their loans off because they'll never have a job that pays them enough. They prey on low-income students and rope them in to a degree program they can't afford because their expectations are so high they lose sight of their moral compass. All it is a diploma mill with lemmings following orders and producing numbers. They don't care ONE BIT about their employees or their students. They are an embarrassment.
