Pros

UMA goes out of its way to be there for students. UMA Clearwater students learn real world skills that they are able to put into practice immediately following graduation. Staff and faculty are helpful, friendly and really care about their students.

Cons

You have to have a real passion for students to do well at UMA. Our students are great but they need us. We need to be ready to give 100% all the time.

Pros

The pay...which is 16 an hour...is the only thing worth stay for. Oh yea..and the food trucks are tasty I guess.

Cons

They put all employees on a 3 month temp role and tell you that all the leads they give you are hot when really your calling people who have never heard of the school at all. The Directors are all very sketchy and lie to your face to keep you from quiting before they fire your first. I would like to say the stuff is good but it's really a place for teen moms, people with no degrees and ex cons...pretty much a trap like the actually school itself. Oh and the training that you only get for a week is a joke. You pretty much sit in a class room that's below freezing with a man with a slimy beard reading over a script and telling you that whatever sales training you have is wrong and it will hurt you. As of recently a few new directors that have hit the floor only got their jobs by "servicing" upper management, clearly showing that there is only one way to keep your job...know the Vice President and his team "personally". If you have an interview or got an offer from this job...RUN...16 an hour may sound good but trust me you can find it somewhere else. As a current employee, I learned the hard way.

Wow, you really sound as though you are having a miserable experience. I can only offer you advice from two people who are perhaps the most opposite: Confucius said, "Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated." Audrey Hepburn said, "The most important thing in life is to be happy - to enjoy yourself - that is all that matters." Why not take all that negative energy and hate towards others and put it towards improving yourself and the lives of others around you? Find something you enjoy... why wait another day? Life's too short... Best wishes to you on finding your calling.
