Pros

Great pay and fun environment (at least it was)

Cons

UMA is fun but very unprofessional. It is a good job to get if you are in between jobs or while you are looking for something more secure. You will never know whether or not you will have your job the next day, everything is ran through favoritism, and in the end of the day they do not CARE about their students. All they care about is keeping their accreditation and will teach you to do whatever means necessary to "place" graduates into minimum wage jobs that they could have gotten without their overpriced diploma. UMA is a complete joke and could never be a creditable work environment if they keep treating PEOPLE like they are dispensable. First job ever that I walked out without giving notice and never thought twice about my decision.

Pros

Student success is a priority at UMA! We have several teams committed to making sure student can be successful in their classes and beyond graduation. Employee retention and satisfaction is important. We have an onsite deli, zumba/yoga classes, community service projects, family fun day, team outings, spirit days/weeks, and intramural sports. Awesome career progression plan for folks who meet basic employment standards.

Cons

UMA continues to grow and we're running out of space in our building. If you work from 9 - 6 then getting in/out of the parking garage can be a nightmare.
