      Positive, Most Motivating to students

      Enrollment specialist/student retention specialist
      Recommend

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      I believe that I had the most positive experience. I loved the type of working environment and I enjoyed motivating students to set their goals and making a differences. I loved being on the phone helping students and I would like to return in the future.

      Cons

      AP is a call center environment of which I had no complaint of staying on the phone with our students. This was our purpose to recruit and to retain them, to provide outstanding customer service.

      Innovation ... I came back to AP to innovate again after a great first run....

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      This place takes risks on behalf of students and universities. Innovation is tough work and sometimes there are times when you fail. Failure is part of growth and I want to be a part of a company that is out there taking risks based on our core principles of access, affordability, and quality. Tenacity is key and AP doesn't stop until we make it work for students and our university partners.....

      Cons

      If you don't like change or risk, this is not the place for you. Higher ed is changing fast, and there needs to be companies that are out there working to help figure out new models that provide access for students and sustainability for universities.

      Promising strategy undermined by poor executive leadership

      Anonymous employee

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Strategy at the surface looks great. The engine is interesting and effective, albeit the avenues of growth are quite limited—a great place to work on several interesting projects simultaneously.

      Cons

      Chaotic Decision-Making, No thoughts given by Exec Leadership to Change Management, Sequencing, and scaling things. Operations suffers from Poor Exec Leadership, a lack of thoughtful execution, and proper planning. Some parts of the organization are being run as a fiefdom. No processes and micro-management. No work-life balance.
