Pros
The students are great, I loved my coworkers and the benefits are unmatched.
Cons
This is the worst management I have ever worked with in my life. There was no communication at all, my boss spoke to me directly twice in the entire time that I worked there. Training is terrible. The amount of work is humanly impossible. The job requirements changed constantly that made it impossible to plan a life around. Management blatantly lied to new employees in interviews about expectations. All they care... about is the numbers, it's supposed to be a nonprofit school,certainly didn't operate like one. I could go on and on.

Be honest about expectations upfront. I'm sure that there is someone who could accept this but you're never going to find those people if you aren't honest. Stop treating employees as if they're disposable... they're not. As an online school advisors are often the only face students come in contact with, UMUC students have no problem transferring. High turnover looks sketchy and students will leave.

Advice to Management
Don't take away a fundamental aspect of a position just to bring it back, call it something else, offer more money for it and deem most employees that qualify for the work ineligible
