Pros

Salary appears great at first glance. Good benefits. Lots of support and care for students.

Cons

1. Students are private pay and have frequently been declined acceptance at other schools. Balancing student ability to learn and willingness to pay ALOT of money is a challenge for this organization. 2. Lots of involuntary turnover. I’ve never worked in any organization where so many people have been fired for any minor infraction or Laid off without warning. At all levels of the organization. There is a lack of trust among colleagues that is pervasive. 3. . School is constant - no breaks. 8 week sessions are back to back. Faculty work at a breakneck pace. So while the salary looks good when compared to a more traditional institution , it’s earned through constant work. 4. No joy. Generally unhappy employees.

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.
