Pros

Good amount of PTO. 401k match is good.

Cons

Annual raises are very low and do not keep up with the cost of living. DeVry touts its culture of care, but this only applies to people of a certain pay grade. Advisors are over worked, have no work-life balance due to operating hours, and there's no real recognition for hard work. This position is a glorified call center. Student are permitted to treat colleagues anyway they wish and they are not reprimanded. Opportunities to advance are limited.

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.
