Worse place to work or to get an education
Electrical Instructor (Former Employee), Tampa, Fl – May 16, 2013
This so called school is a joke, they don't care about the students, just the government MONEY! $21,000 for a 720 hour class, the county trade school for electrician is $3500 for a 1200 hour class

Amazing faculty and engaging students
Adjunct Instructor (Current Employee), Melbourne, FL – January 16, 2013
My day is spent helping students in the tutoring center any way they need. If they'd like me to proofread their assignments or help them create a stunning PowerPoint Presentation for class, I'm more than happy to help. I also frequently tutor students in introductiory math, english, science and social studies to help them attain their GED and, hopefully – more... enroll at everest. I also administer the Wonderlic SLE test and frequently proctor make-up exams or finals. – less

Dedicated Faculty
Instructor in Medical Assisting Department (Former Employee), Jackonville, FL – January 14, 2013
Pros: excellent support among faculty members and at-risk but hard-working students.
Cons: inadequate compensation and inexperienced management.
Faculty very supportive. As in most proprietary, for-profit institutions, the culture is one of negative reinforcement due to lack of managerial experience. Students were wonderful and, with support---both academic and personal--tended to do quite well.

Choatic
Financial Aid Officer (Former Employee), Lakeland, FL – December 27, 2012
Pros: close to home, immediate supervisor was excellent
Cons: erratic hours, sudden drop of overtime, pay not in line with the job, talk big but local campus would not carry through with hq guidelines
After my hire upper management did not want to pay for a degreed person, wanted people to do the work of 3-4 (after I left doubled the department from what I was told.) Focused more on sales than funding or what was best for the students

Excellent Place to Make a Difference In The Lives Of Others
Lead Instructor II - Full-Time Faculty (Current Employee), Tampa, FL – November 21, 2012
Great student population. Fun co-workers & excellent benefits. I have learned how to relate to various individuals from many cultures and walks of life. I have also learned to deal and cope with a Management style that is not always easy to comprehend. The most difficult part of the job is accepting that the leadership style is often not inclusive and – more... that change in people and systems often require patience and time. The most enjoyable part of the job is the opportunity to provide transformation in my life and the lives of others. – less

Fast pace environment. Relaxed and fun management style. Enjoyable to go to work.
Collector (Former Employee), Orlando, FL – October 17, 2012
Pros: seeing the students smile, knowing that the had succeeded.
Cons: the frustrations and stress of working in collections
Lots of contact with students either in person or over phone. Never had to sit looking at the clock wondering what you were going to do until quitting time. Director was very hands on with the duties of our office. Director had a relaxed management style that made the office atmosphere fun and light in a stressful job. Co-workers all pitched in to help – more... who ever was busy. Any collection job can be difficult in dealing with people who don't want to pay and avoid you or the ones that would love to pay but are living out of their cars. Being a people person the students were a joy to get to know and you felt the pride that their families felt when they walked across the stage at graduation. – less
