Horrible place to work - Coordinator Walden University Employee Review

Pros

I guess one pro is that they paid me? Though it was only two-thirds of the salary I was promised.

Cons

I was emotionally and financially abused during my time at Walden. It took me just a few weeks to realize the school is set up to take advantage of students of color and veterans. The school's chief revenue stream is taking endless money from students supported by the GI Bill. The plan is to tell students their degree will take x amount of months and x amount of money, and then both those numbers gradually climb as the years go by. It's a brilliant and disgusting business plan. Many managers were sociopaths who took pleasure in the suffering of others. HR could not have cared less. Steer clear, this place is terrifying.
