Pros

The work-life balance is good; however, it is not as exceptional as it used to be with ongoing RIF. Our department is currently down five positions, so that means those of us who remain must cover additional workloads.

Cons

In the past we averaged about one RIF per year (if that). We just had our 2nd or 3rd RIF this calendar year. I say 2-3 RIF, as the one series was not widely reported to colleagues. The difficult part is people being laid off during the holidays. This shows zero Chamberlain Care and has put a great deal of stress on the remaining staff. I never thought about leaving Chamberlain, but there is so much uncertainty lately that I have started to look elsewhere. After the last RIF, which saw several of my work friends being let go, I had enough.

Pros

I've spent many years at Chamberlain, and one of the main reasons is the opportunity for growth. If you're looking for a career rather than just a job, there are clear advancement opportunities at both the enrollment representative and leadership levels. The culture is performance-driven but also coaching-focused, with strong investment in training and development. Chamberlain has strong brand recognition, which makes conversations with prospective students meaningful and rewarding.

Cons

The pace can be demanding during peak enrollment periods, and success requires adaptability as priorities and processes evolve.

Pros

There are lots of good people working in the campuses and working to help students succeed is very fulfilling.

Cons

The home office (Covista) IT takes forever and a day to do anything. There seems to be a focus on reducing costs to the point that the experience feels cheap.
