Pros

This is a great company to work with. DeVry hires for attitudes and is willing to train the right candidate.

Cons

Can sometimes be routine and mundane work. Cubicle environment in certain office locations can make it difficult to concentrate sometimes.

Pros

Ability to make a difference in the lives of students. Most of the people that work there are good people overall.

Cons

No praise, recognition, or incentive to work hard or stay an employee there. There was no room for growth. You would think that the university would want to try to hire/keep employees that have worked there for years, learning the ins and outs of the system and processes, especially if they have earned one or more degrees from your university, and especially if they have already spent years being underpaid and under-appreciated (that way they will not be shocked by the way you would treat them as full time employees).

Pros

Great benefits (start immediately) The pay is good Wonderful education benefit Room to grow and advance Lots of time off given DeVry is a good place to work if you are seeking your Master's degree and don't want to pay as much as you could if you were to go elsewhere. They even encourage you to enroll and further your education.

Cons

Education benefit is taxed as regular income (and tuition is high) Definite favoritism when choosing who will grow and who will go Understaffed at times Blackout dates prevent time off from being taken Stressful
