Pros

It's a steady job. The benefits are very good, it seems they are working on making employee relations better. I was surprised at the first page of this that I was mostly "dissatified".

Cons

It's an entry level job and I have a management background. There are a lot of people that seem to be stuck in lower level jobs here that have more experience. Not a lot of room to move UP. Admissions dept is a sales dept and you get that high pressure sales atmosphere which trickles down to the entire company. I work with some great people, but most are disgruntled with their job. Jobs are boring and repetitive. Management is laughable, most are just out of college a few years and haven't a clue on how to treat employees. Human resources is not there for employees, but to protect the company. There's a rule that a manager cannot give a reference for an employee going outside of the company. Management likes to keep little secrets, We were not told about the GAO report and how it will affect the company. They just sent messages about ethics to everyone. I knew what admissions was doing was wrong, and now they're just quietly saying oh, we never did THAT....

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.
