Pros

The money isn't bad, but other schools pay more. They have benefits, but my guess is that no one actually stays long enough to receive them, especially in admissions.

Cons

Awful management. Really bad attitudes -- everyone is secretly looking for another job. And admissions is tough because no one really actually wants to pay over 70k to go to that crappy school. The marketing is awful and the sales team - that's admissions - takes the heat for it. This is undoubtedly the worst work atmosphere I've ever worked in.

Pros

There really aren't any pros that outweigh any of the cons, so I won't bother with telling you about them.

Cons

Managed by truly horrible people with greed in their eyes and hatred in their souls. Nothing is more important to these people than getting as much money as they possibly can from poor, underqualified students. They have no qualms about loading a student up with massive debt and pushing them through a relatively useless degree program that will leave them saddled with debt for a lifetime. Entrance requirements for students are at an absolute minimum. The tuition is extremely high and additional fees and expenses are beyond absurd for such a low-caliber school. Academic administrators who should be focused on teaching and current student needs are forced to spend vast amounts of time tracking delinquent- and even dropped-out, deeply in-debt, below-acceptable-GPA students- trying to get them to come back. Admissions is a call center with extremely aggressive tactics and its representatives are given unrealistic "goals" that are really quotas that must be met, but cannot be met. Most, if not all positive reviews are totally fake. Don't even apply there, OK? Don't believe me? Go for it. Give it a try and find out first-hand. Don't say you were not warned.
