No room for advancement

Pros

There is tuition assistance for staff. There are also locations nationwide for those who may want to relocate and try new opportunities.

Cons

There is little room for advancement within any one specific location. Claim of promoting from within, but many from outside hired. Marketing is way off the mark. Not much employee engagement.

Pros

Less people makes for more work. Some say that's a pro.

Cons

It's been about 4 months since 6% of the company was laid off and with this economy, very hard to find a career. Mainly because I was paid a lot of money (main reason I believe in laying me off) and now all of the companies I look for can't meet the demand I was so use to living. DeVry knew I recently bought a home and had a growing family though didn't take that into consideration when laying a Senior Advisor off. They have not helped regarding finding new work with recommendations and I'm still getting emails and mailers from them! I have called and told them to stop emailing or mailing me about their school since it's obvious I wouldn't dare get another degree from them. This has not been done.
