Pros

They pay is up to par and the work "environment" is energetic.

Cons

Even though it is suppose to be a school that provides education, it seems to care less about the student needs, and more about "numbers" and out-doing the next team. Some people that have been contacted are clearly not at an educational level and are not financially stable to take on such a commitment. The great majority of transfers are from people that thought they were applying for employment. Then once they realize that they have been contacted to be forced into enrolling in a school, they are justifiably upset and frustrated. The admission representatives are fully aware that these people are being forced into a position that's not beneficial for them, however, we are made to "sale" and make those numbers despite the valid concerns of the prospect. I'd you fail to meet those expectations, you are guaranteed to be fired. I did not feel comfortable having to force someone's hand into a long-term commitment that I knew was not beneficial for them. Not just to increase sales or even to keep my job. My integrity and my ability to sleep at night with a clear conscious was much more important.

All students who enroll at UMA must meet eligibility requirements, and by no means is anyone ever forced to enroll. Also, anyone who reaches our Admissions team has expressed interest in going to school. As an accredited educational institution, UMA upholds standards that are consistent with requirements from our institutional accreditor to ensure students are qualified when they enroll. In addition, during the Admissions process, our representatives are trained to take great care to make sure students understand the time and technology required to attend UMA, the full cost of their program and their options for managing work and family obligations in conjunction with school. Our mission is to equip and empower students to excel in healthcare careers. That starts by ensuring students are informed and ready to enroll during the Admissions process. If they choose to enroll at UMA, our Learner Services and Education teams support them through their academic journey, and our Career Services team works closely with healthcare employers to help match our graduates to open positions in their locations and fields of study. We would like to better understand your experience and comments. Could you please contact us at UMACares@ultimatemedical.edu?

Pros

Overtime available, when need it

Cons

The work environment was highly scripted, making it difficult to build genuine rapport with prospective students. Employees were expected to follow approved scripts very closely, and even small deviations could be treated as compliance issues. At the same time, compliance expectations were not always clearly communicated, which created unnecessary stress. Management felt overly focused on micromanagement, contributing to a high-pressure work environment. During my time there, I also heard a prospective student comment on what they perceived as a lack of diversity within the organization, which stood out to me. Overall, I found the culture stressful and inflexible. Based on my experience, I would not recommend this employer to those looking for a supportive workplace with clear expectations and the flexibility to communicate authentically.
