Pros

Our program director is open to ideas and suggestions; she really knows how to communicate with people and boost moral. Overall, the company, faculty, and staff makes UMA a great place to work.

Cons

Low retention and the blame game starts. The instructor no matter how engaging usually gets held responsible for lack of student retention. However, when the instructors numbers are good, no acknowledgement. It goes like this, good retention month (we did it) and bad retention month (you did it).

Thanks for the positive review. Engaged instructors are the "bread and butter" of the Academy, so please don't hesitate to schedule some time with the director of education, or a member of the senior management or academic teams to share more details regarding your feedback. We're all ears, all the time. Best wishes to you on continued success as you join in on changing lives, one at a time.

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.
