Pros

Great benefits, hybrid schedule, beautiful facility and resource groups.

Cons

It's disheartening to see how much things have changed for the worse. What was once a thriving environment of growth and development has become a place where learning seems to be discouraged. Development used to be at the core of our culture, with opportunities to grow and innovate. However, over the years, that focus has disappeared. Now, rather than being encouraged to develop our skills, we're expected to learn through mistakes and reprimands. The atmosphere has shifted from one of support and collaboration to one where fear of failure dominates. It feels like the company has lost its way, and the values that once made it great have been pushed aside. It's painful to see a place I once loved working at lose sight of what made it special. If you're looking for a company that fosters development and growth, unfortunately, this is no longer the place for it.

Pros

Chamberlain is a highly variable place to work. Everything depends on what team you are working on. Some teams will have managers who will fight for you and help build you up, others not so much. I have more or less grown up with the company and have seen it go from being owned by a private family to being owned by Blackstone and all between. Every year I ask myself, "is this the year I leave". My answer is usually no, as where else will be better when I am at least in a good position? Summer fridays are pretty great though.

Cons

Yearly reorgs are a constant drag. Some of the most CG-blooded people I have ever known are somehow always the first to get sent to the wood chipper. People flail around and react. There is no forward thought. Just constant reaction to whatever words the executive population utters. We have been 'transforming' for the near decade I have worked here. But what are we even transforming to? All I have seen is us transforming into yet another soulless company. Benefits have been getting crushed. My wonderful and amazing 401k service contribution was ripped away and replaced with a far less beneficial amount. If you aren't on a good team, or have a good manager, your chance for advancement will be near impossible. Constant 'do more with less'
