Pros

If you can look pass the repetitive work and poor leadership culture you are doing good work with helping people earn their college degrees.

Cons

The Student Facing roles have a fundamentally poor leadership structure. They will preach on a culture of care but at the group director they are mostly temperamental people. This is good while you are in their favor, but once you fall out of favor it leads to bullying, and gaslighting tactics. HR is not helpful as they will take months to investigate during which they are giving the directors time to change language and find a reason to fire you.

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.
