Pros

At the campus, the people at DeVry were dedicated, intelligent, hard-working individuals. They believed in their students and in their work.

Cons

DeVry faces a lot of turmoil. Even if you're excellent at your job, there is no stability. You cannot count on having your job a year from now, twelve years from now, etc. I saw so many cuts - it was truly sad. There is no room for growth/promotions and you'll have to work most Saturdays including the Saturday before/after Christmas when students are on break if you're at a campus. Management looks to hire from the outside to save on costs. I don't believe DeVry will still be in existence 5 years from now. The company at the top cares about the dollar only, not its people or students.

Pros

DeVry Day was a wonderful example of our positive culture, meaningful work, and commitment to making a difference. Welcoming and congratulating graduates allowed me to celebrate their achievements firsthand and witness the impact of the support and resources DeVry provides throughout their educational journey. The event created a sense of community, recognition, and pride that reflected our dedication to student success. Seeing graduates and their families celebrate this milestone reinforced how our work contributes to helping students achieve their goals and create better futures for themselves

Cons

This event was nothing but spectacular!

Pros

Work from home, good benefits, paid time off & the pay.

Cons

They say it’s not a KPI based position but it is. They will not give commission because they say we should be in it for the students and not numbers but the position is solely based on numbers. This is not a warm, team friendly position. Even your team mates are in competition with you. You will work two Saturdays out of the month and sometimes even Sundays and they still won’t be satisfied with your work ethic.
