This Place Is a Zoo, and Shady. Especially for Education

Anonymous employee

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Great experience with working with students and colleagues. Pay is okay

Cons

Extremely long hours and overworked. Pay could be better, and definitely favoritism plays a strong presence within each campus and especially corporate. Turnover is extremely high and leadership does not care about their staff.

High Turnover, no work-life balance

Business Outlook

Pros

Pay and benefits (they pay you well because they drain the life out of you)

Cons

Everything. Management wants to get to numbers that are unrealistic. They don't care how hard you work, if you have 0 enrollments in a week they think you are not even trying and keep putting more pressure on you. I have worked in other Admission Departments before but nothing like WCU. They blame Admissions and in fact is Financial Aid that has no idea how to package students. Only one FA person was actually good and he is no longer there. No one actually cares. They expect you to work until 10pm

Business Outlook

Pros

Great pay, holidays are paid, winter break for faculty as well

Cons

Management isn't too good. They don't have accountability and no leadership. If something goes wrong, they will blame you for it. Words get twisted and they throw you under the bus. No direction or guidance from management and they expect you to fix issues by yourself.
