Toxic work environment

Recommend

Business Outlook

Pros

Virtual, otherwise no positives. A few good people.

Cons

Every single interaction and every single meeting will include negative colleagues and toxic interactions. The organization is full of people who are master forwarders and delegators.You will not get orientation and the reporting structure is fragmented. Student beware! It really is about the money and enrollment not the quality of the education bring provided.
