Colorado Technical University Employee Reviews about "good pay"

Pros

Very good pay for job

Cons

Not very consistent management mostly

Pros

1. Received Regular course assignments 2. Pretty low stress 3. Minimal grading requirements 4. Decent pay

Cons

1. A lot of micromanagement in first term classed 2. Large class sizes of 60 students 3. Scripted student responses required-very little faculty creativity allowed 4. Required to facilitate 1 live session per week, and frequently no students would show

Pros

NONE besides decent pay and even the pay is not worth the things you may have to deal with on a daily basis

Cons

EVERYTHING. From day one you are lied to about what your job as an admissions advisor is. They very cleverly avoid the word "sales" but in essence that is what you are except this place is completely unethical even an open sales environment did not push this hard for numbers. It is all about metrics and if you are not achieving ridiculous metrics such as an average of four hours of talk time a day, you have to hit your monthly enrollment number and not only that but make sure your enrollments start and do their assignments and attend class yay more metrics, you also have to make a certain amount of outbound dials every day. Management is very very numbers oriented that is all they care about, if you are not producing some managers are very very very micromanagerial and will ask you every day what your plan is to improve your numbers. TIP: If you have any ethics get out before you get fired, unlike myself who was let go because I called in sick with proof from a doctor's office. I am glad I was let go because I was going to leave on my own either way just wish I could have done it on my own terms. This place is literally H E double hockey sticks.,

Pros

The company by far pays some of the highest salary ranges for admissions in the for profit sector.

Cons

I wish there was more opportunity to grow. Lots of hoops and politics to jump through for advancement.

Pros

Pay and benefits close to shopping

Cons

Too many to mention

Pros

They offer very good pay

Cons

They prey on the elderly, disabled, intellectually disabled, and people getting out of jail. They make you sign up people who do not know what they are signing up for! These people do not want to go to school. It’s high pressure sales. They will tell you it is advising. It is not. The managers micromanage. They are full of criticism and will not work with you. They do not use your strengths at all. I felt very unethical. I felt like a used car salesman. It felt disgusting.

Pros

The only pro is that the pay is decent.

Cons

Poor management, and high turnover rate.

Pros

Good pay for the industry

Cons

Same pressure sales tactics that has been a constant underlying issue in this industry for years manage through fear good people get walk out regularly

Pros

The pay is great! No degree can make 20-25 dollars starting off. The building is nice and the location is ideal. It is located by Woodfield mall. Could be a good school but management has to be replaced.You will meet some great people who may be co-workers or students, less likely your management unfortunately will fall in this category ;(

Cons

Crazy schedules, often asked to work 60 plus hours a week. No time for anything else. Kept on a scored card that makes it pretty apparent if you don't get a certain amount of enrollments or students you will no longer work here. A lot of pressure to do illegal things, such as enroll students who are mentally, socially challenged, senior citizens, poor and minorities as well as military veterans are targeted. You start feeling bad of your role in manipulating people..

Pros

Great pay at entry level positions

Cons

Workplace politics will ruin your experience.
