Pros

Great health benefits overall. Awesome coworkers.

Cons

Management is horrible! The job itself is extremely predatory towards prospective students. You have to persuade students to enroll into a certification or AA degree program for healthcare. The tuition cost for these programs ranges from $18,000 to $30,000 which is absurd. Typical community college cost is under $10,000. Most of the degrees are useless in workforce, imagine spending 18 months in “school” then receive career placement in a call center like Alorica. Management is unrealistic and out of touch. If you have one bad day, they will make you feel like you’re the worst employee ever.

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.
