Team camaraderie undermined by toxic environment and anxiety

Pros

The team of ACs typically get along well.

Cons

Probably the most toxic place I’ve ever experienced. As other reviews stated, this place is a revolving door. Everyone is anxious, it’s impossible to meet expectations and the threat of being written up or fired is now a huge factor.

Pros

I have worked in Admissions with Everglades University - Tampa for just over 9 months now. When I first was starting out, Admissions was brand new to me. I was worried that it was something that I was not going to do well at. However, thanks to the insightful training and ample support from both my team here in Tampa and the leadership from the main campus, I feel like I have really found my footing. Back in October of 2024, I knew nothing about the Admissions process, but in just a few months I took off and even got promoted to Senior Admissions Counselor. Everglades University is a place where Admissions Counselors can truly make bonds with their students and impact on the lives for the better. Also, the people who work here make the experience even better! And if you work for the Tampa campus, expect a lot of birthday cake celebrations in your future! Tampa has a great campus culture.

Cons

Depending on your outlook, some days can be busy, but I see this as a positive because the day flies by!

Thank you for your review. We are glad you enjoyed your co-workers! We agree we have a great team. We also have great managers, and it sounds like something went wrong? Maybe you didn’t perform well, and your manager had to meet with you or worse yet release you. We are sorry it was not a good fit and understand you may be upset and writing numerous reviews. Let me know if you want to discuss! We wish you well in your future endeavors. Kristi Mollis, President/CEO
