Pros

Very flexable schedule. They are also very good about trying to accomadate time off. The benefits are also pretty good in comparison with some university.

Cons

With students starting to turn from private schools, DeVry reacts with lashing out at employees. Suddenly it is more more more, instead of actually assisting students. The mass numbers of people leaving has left online short staffed, and under prepared. This causes studnets to become frustrated rightfully so. This place is a study in horrible management. Directors run around trying to figure out how to blame the other department for the lack of new students instead of addressing the real problem. All the while the actual employees are over worked and not apperciated. There is only so many times a person can be scoled for not following a robic script.

Pros

I've had a very positive experience working at DeVry University. The culture is collaborative, supportive, and focused on helping both employees and students succeed. Leadership is transparent about the organization's priorities and challenges, and they genuinely encourage open communication and feedback. It's refreshing to work in an environment where leaders are approachable, accessible, and invested in the success of their teams. One of the things I appreciate most is the collaborative culture. Colleagues are always willing to share ideas, support one another, and work together to solve challenges. There is a strong sense of teamwork, and successes are celebrated across the organization. DeVry also fosters a true growth mindset. Employees are encouraged to continuously learn, take on new challenges, and invest in their professional development. I recently completed an internal leadership development program that was both challenging and highly relevant to my role. It also provided a great opportunity to collaborate with leaders from across the organization, exchange ideas, and learn from one another's experiences. Experiences like this demonstrate DeVry's commitment to developing its people and preparing them for future leadership opportunities. If you're looking for an organization where you can contribute, continue learning, and work alongside talented people who genuinely care about making a difference, DeVry University is a great place to build your career.

Pros

The ALP program was a valuable leadership and professional development experience. I enjoyed connecting with colleagues across the organization, learning from different perspectives, and gaining practical takeaways I could apply in my role. The coaching sessions were especially helpful for reflecting on the content and discussing how to put the learning into practice.

Cons

The six-month program does require a meaningful time commitment, with three-hour content sessions followed by one-hour coaching sessions. At times, balancing the sessions with day-to-day responsibilities can be challenging, so having a dedicated time to fully engage in the program is important.
