Pros

The pros are the few good people left who've been able to hold onto their jobs.

Cons

Since Jakma Investments took over approximately four years ago there has been a continual turnover of employees. Their advertisements said "Say Yes to Success," but as far as employees, EVERYONE Jakma hires fails. NO EMPLOYEE that Jakma hired initially, good or bad, has been able to keep their job, and the turnover has accelerated rather than lessened. That bad employees have lost their jobs can be excused. That good, productive employees have lost their jobs in many cases cannot be excused. It's gone from being a company where the worst employees hate ETI to being a company where the best employees hate ETI. If you go to work for ETI, don't expect to be there long. At ETI it's no longer what you know, do, or have done: It's who you know and who you're aligned with. And in the end, who you're aligned with won't save you because the next change in management is probably right around the corner. Be forewarned if you go to work for ETI: They have no conscience or loyalty, nor a heck of a lot of common sense.

Pros

ETI is an excellent company to work for - great working environment where instructors and staff take pride in the school and students to make sure students have a rewarding and fulfilling educational experience at ETI. As part of the Career Services Team, we provide resume writing assistance, interview preparation, job search strategies, and access to our vast network of employer partnerships. If you want a rewarding career helping people further their education and develop their skills, ETI is a great company to work for.

Cons

There is always work that needs to be completed and not always enough time in the day. Getting my to-do-list down to one page is always a challenge. So if you like to be busy, can prioritize and have good time management skills, you will be successful.

Pros

Passionate instructors and employees always worked collaboratively to execute initiatives.

Cons

Very unprofessional work environment, low employee morale, disconnected management, culture is slipping away from diversity, no ongoing coaching and training, high turnover, micro managed, sweatshop environment, lots of gossiping, unprofessional front desk staff, vice president laid off career services director only a month after her employment and put his wife in that role, management fraternizing with certain employees; therefore playing favorites. Bottom line, leads are set up to where whomever arrives to work first will receive all leads from night before in his/her bucket. You'd have to get to work as soon as sun rises to get a significant amount of leads for the day. Unfortunately, the "favorites" had administrative rights to all leads; so as peers, they had opportunity to delegate leads, add to, take from etc. Even aiming to be first in wouldn't be beneficial. Both locations merged into one to move to a middle to upper class area in effort to weed out minority demographic.
