Pros
UMA is not only concerned about the success of its students, but also about the well-being of their employees. There are numerous health and wellness programs in place, free of charge. They also hold a bi-monthly fruit and vegetable market, to give employees healthy options, right from the convenience of their workplace, at no cost to them. I take pride in representing a company that cares about the students, as well as the employees. I worked at another online university prior to this, and was refreshed to see how UMA does business. They are truly invested in their students’ success and their employees happiness, not at all with padding their pockets, as was my experience with my previous online university.
Cons
There are some slight disconnects between departments, but communication is constantly improving. There are lots of changes/updates and revisions to current processes, but I believe these changes are all for the long-term best interest of the company. As they say, “change is the only constant in life”, and I believe we are evolving for the better.
