Pros

- Most coworkers are good people. - 100% remote position.

Cons

- Managers are shady and will say one thing, but do something else. - Higher management keep employees in the dark. - Very numbers driven and you will get degraded if you are not hitting your expected metrics. - In the initial interviews, you will be promised that you will be "changing lives." In reality, your manager will push you to get students to apply if they are not qualified or the program is not what they are looking for. - Managers do not know how to manage people and will often talk in circles or be condescending.

It is unfortunate that you were dissatisfied with your time at Everspring. We take pride in delivering a great admissions experience on behalf of our university partners and we regularly receive outstanding reviews from prospects and students whose lives were changed positively by enrolling in an Everspring-supported program. To ensure that all of our prospects and partners have a consistently excellent experience, we have a rigorous training and leadership development program and consistent management oversight; it sounds like these did not meet your expectations.

Pros

The best boss I’ve ever had was at this job. I love that the job is mostly remote, but there are some in person opportunities. I always felt supported and fairly compensated.

Cons

We’re required to come in twice a month. I wish it wasn’t a requirement, just strongly encouraged.

Pros

Nice office, free coffee and snacks Work From Home Stepping Stone Some nice coworkers

Cons

Terrible work-life balance Will have you managing a huge account, almost basically on your own, and your managers (plural) will either be so burnt out that they cannot help you or so obsessed with looking good for the CEO that they disregard you and pile on more work Layoffs (twice in a calendar year now), where they’ll move the extra work to an already burnt out team Low Pay, Laughable Raises No place for growth Pushes to complete the “Chicago Great Places to Work” survey with positive remarks because that’s one of the only things making them look good to new hires
