Sometimes following chain of command isnt feasible. Not a lot of clarity on expectations,changes from manager to manager within same department. I was told by management favoritism decides promotions.

Student Finance Dept.

Pros

I worked here for 3 years in the Student Finance Department and generally, I really enjoyed it. The initial training at that time was about two weeks, and it was both appreciated and pretty intimidating/exhausting. However, we also had Friday trainings every week and after a while, those regular sessions helped me feel confident as a professional student finance advisor despite the fact that I had zero previous experience. (Also, note: I worked very hard and was promoted in less than a year, so I was fortunate to avoid phone-burnout.) There seemed to be a lot of room for promotions within the department and even into other departments, so if you can avoid getting caught up in petty politics and jealousies -- this may take some effort! -- you could gain a lot of experience here. Some managers were obviously better than others, but I found everyone in mid- to upper-management easy to talk to and very down to earth. The pay was also decent and overtime hours were offered on the weekends and holidays, but it was never mandatory. Benefits kicked in after 90 days. I had a great time here.

Cons

If you don't work toward a promotion, the phones can really wear you down. The calls are very repetitive and the shouts to "Stay on the queue!" or "Be available!" are frustrating when you're taking call after call after call. The teams were small and always changing, which was great; however, it also led to animosity and gossip when people were promoted. The environment was VERY loud, but that's not shocking as this is a call center with a Wii and various other games scattered around. This didn't strike me as a career position, despite being promoted; it was still always "just a job" to me, even though I gained a lot of experience and friendships in my position(s). That said, if you're looking for a career, be patient enough to wait for promotions to upper-level management or maybe check out some other departments. This one sees a lot of burnout and turnover.

Pros

Ultimate Medical Academy is 100% dedicated to it's mission of creating better lives and opportunities for its employees and the students we serve. From the CEO to the dedicated employees throughout the organization, this company is all about results for our students. The culture is fast paced and at times stressful, but that is all a part of being the best. Really proud to work at this great company and look forward to continuing to better the lives of our students.

Cons

The company is a bit slow to respond to the growth and keeping up with training and resources for its staff. Although, these are probably standard growing pains in any business with substantial growth.
