Pros

Freedom to work independently with little hindrance.

Cons

Layoffs given with 10 minute notice and you're out the door! Only value the bottom line, not the person that is being affected (even those who just had babys). Uses the "At Will Employment" law to get rid of anyone they don't like. Work approvals must go through a Senior VP for finals, tying up the process and delays (not that they care they caused a delay). Constant quarterly budget cuts into the millions. Absolutely horrible TV ads - very low low budget. It would be better to just not have TV ads at that point. Marketing managers need to go back to marketing school!

Pros

I learned a lot here — both positive experiences and serious red flags. I enjoyed the enrollment cycle, working with families, and having space to contribute ideas. Unfortunately, the leadership and culture at this location overshadowed those positives.

Cons

No room for growth. This office has experienced unusually high turnover (around 60 to 70+ staff changes in two years in what is typically a low-turnover industry). The person who hired me was terminated before I started, and others resigned shortly after. Training is inconsistent, rushed, and largely self-directed. Promises of promotion or growth are rarely fulfilled. Leadership fosters a hostile environment. Employees are openly warned to “watch out” for certain individuals, which I later found to be true. Cameras are used less for security and more for micromanagement, down to monitoring bathroom breaks. Bullying and intimidation are tolerated and sometimes perpetuated by management. Rather than addressing corporate concerns with reflection or accountability, staff are abruptly terminated without notice, PIPs, or meaningful feedback. Students also feel the effects — their challenges are often ignored or shifted back onto them, despite repeated discussions about retention and support. Reps are discouraged from addressing student concerns meaningfully, which undermines trust and outcomes. If you choose to work here, you will need to document everything, be extremely strong in sales and admissions that its undeniable, and expect little in terms of support, growth, or stability. This environment is mentally draining and unsustainable due to leadership practices.
