        Pros

        Work life balance, companies outlook of doing what is best for the student, leadership, career road map. You know in black and white what is expected of you. The training for the AC position is the best I have ever been a part of, and I came in with 14 years of admissions under my belt. I feel my leadership wants my success as much as I do. You cannot ask for more from a company

        Cons

        None for me at this time

          Work/Life balance. Awesome 6 week training. Positive-ethical environment. They are about student success. I have been in higher education for over 8 years and this company is by far the best I've worked. Student and employee success, what more can I say.

          Cons

          None. At first I had to ask myself was this to good to be true..........

                    Cons

                    Run! There is no work life balance and they will threaten you with losing your job at every turn. Managers are hammered on to micro manage their teams. Admissions runs all of Finance from the top down and does not care about the controversial issues this creates for a school getting federal funding. Most work 11 to 13 hour days, and the morale is terrible you get beat up every single day. I can't wait to leave this place in the dust its not worth the money to put up with what they dish out.

                      Pros

                      I looked for a job that I can work from home at for years since I have a little one. This job has exceeded my expectations! It is rewarding, challenging, and has great pay and benefits. I am able to have more of a work/life balance and I feel great at the end of the day knowing that I have a part in shaping people's future helping them enroll in school.

                      Cons

                      not really any cons unless you like to work around other people. I do not mind working remotely from home.

                        Cons

                        Leadership the worst, pay stunk, and no work life balance.

                      Alex L.

                      Applied for a job a few weeks back, got a call from HR yesterday morning about an interview next week. She mentioned she'd shoot me an email with all the interview details, but so far, my inbox is empty. Assuming I'll hear from her early next week, is it normal for them to expect me to show up for an in-person interview on short notice, like couple days?
