Pros

Great benefits, 401K is great

Cons

In reflecting on my previous workplace, there were several cultural and structural challenges, including high‑pressure leadership expectations, inconsistent HR support, and limited avenues for raising concerns. These factors contributed to an environment where psychological safety and accountability were not consistently present. I am now contributing to an organization that prioritize integrity, healthy culture, and effective leadership practices.

Cons

I have truly wrestled with what to write in this review, as I do believe there have been good aspects of the role over the past 4 years. However, I think prospective employees deserve a clear understanding of the role that is not included in the job description. This is a quota-based role. As a UDR, you are responsible for monthly metrics that must be met. It is a strictly sales job, and those coming from a previous higher education background will soon be shocked. To truly thrive in this role, a sales background is needed and the ability to work 50-plus hours a week. If you do not meet your student enrollments, you will be placed on an improvement plan. If you thrive in a fast-paced setting with continuous pressure to be more and do more, this is the role for you.
