Pros

I'm currently having a hard time thinking of pros beyond the students that I met and the relationships I formed with them. Oh and there's a lot of free food..

Cons

For profit university with no care about the students, the education, or their employees. No work life balance, constant changes in staff, expectations, and rules. Hours of dials and sales, not helping people. The value of the education doesn't match the cost that students pay. Employees live in fear of lay-offs and management's mood swings. No upward mobility even though it is promised.

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.
