Bridgepoint Education Employer Reviews

I cannot remeber the last time I saw the CEO, COO or any of the "C" in the company. They will demand loyalty but give nothing back.

The culture has a high school feel...Loud (unfiltered) music played from Pandora, insults hurled if quotas arent met. Never javd I worked for a company with a high Rate of employees on stress leave, high turnover rate, elevated blood pressure, miscarrages, alcohol relapses, return of cancer. This place is toxic! 2 of my friends (a married couple) relocated – more... to Colorado from The SD office and were both let go within 6 months..No loyalty on the company's part.I know the economy is not so great; however, if you must take the job, keep your career search current-THIS IS NOT A CAREER! – less

Great company, love working there. The work load was heavy but doable within the time frame, learned alot from the company, earned my BA while working there, great coworkers, my manager try very hard to keep up with the position although I felt that more experience in the manager position were needed.

Co workers were very helpful and nice.

I learn about working in large corporate environment.

The only way to get promoted was by how many people you enrolled, not by your skill level. It didn't matter about how qualified you were for a position, it just mattered how much money you made them.

I worked with a great group of people. Stability and benefits are exceptional. The ability to interact with and positively influence the public is something to appreciate.

THis is a young culture environment with a lot of room for advancement.

Your job is to enroll and retain as many students as possible. It is a very different job then what they feed to the public or the masses.

Bridgepoint Education Provided essential tools and opportunities that aided that has helped to date.

Moved up relatively quickly in this company; however, management has very high turnover, very cliquish and extremely inexperienced. Entry level positions are ridiculous with attrition. There is not much else to say....the star value speaks for itself.

A good environment for learning the position. Management is supportive and encouraging of personal and professional development.

- Advising and counseling current and prospective students. Build rapport with students to increase workflow.

- Learned how to work in a fast-paced atmosphere with multiple goals and deadlines.

Would not recommend. Their values are only in making money.

Good place to work but company ideal was not so good. Gained great experience but is not a great place for a career.

Enrolled new students
counseled students through first class
Majority of mng were less educated then teams
Turnover rate extremely high
Coworkers were great to work with

STRESSFUL had to meet quota even through legally it was not stated.

The company has it good as well as its bad parts. They are big on helping the community, which I find is very responsible. The management team is just that "management". They don't understand that people follow "leaders" and not "managers". It's pretty much a set up to fail from the beginning in my current role. Bad leads for potential students, reasons – more... for keeping you below the "meets expectations" threshold to prevent you from transferring out of the department are just some of the under handed things they do. The only thing they offer worth staying for is a free graduate degree, but given everything you have to put up with from the micro-management to the fraternization it makes you wonder if the free education is worth it. They continue to remind you that your job is on the line everyday. How you can see value in what you do when your job is threatened constantly? – less
