Pros

A genuinely supportive culture where people care about each other and about students. Leadership is approachable and accessible, and communication from the top is transparent and frequent with town halls, videos, and email updates. This can sometimes feel like over communication but its better than the alternative. The CEO is very down to earth and regularly shows up in classrooms and invites ALL colleagues to events and to provide regular feedback, which is not something you see often in higher education or any corporate environment. My leader gives me a lot of autonomy and trust, which makes it easier to do my job well. Remote work helps with work-life balance, and the colleagues I work with are collaborative and mission-driven.

Cons

Too many meetings and a lot of good ideas but less people able to bring them to life.

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.
