Full Sail University Employer Reviews

I love teaching. We get all the tools we need. The school is well run.

The people at Full Sail University were very nice and the supervisors were very attentive.

Enjoyed my time here. Very good people. Great for networking. Safe and creative environment. Incredibly flexible schedule and awesome staff.

Exciting entertainment based college. Worked for over 9 years in Financial Aid, working with students, admissions department and business office.

The company has its faults like any other company, but there are many upsides to working in a place with great benefits, and overall pleasant atmosphere.

Good place to work, secure, management is ok... don't always make the best decisions, great co-workers, relaxed environment.

Very time consuming but productive. Always keeps us on out toes with new developments and different ways to improve the students experience while in school. The most enjoyable part of my job as been my wonderful coworkers and the Christmas parties.

Awesome experience. Happy to have been involved with this company.

The job itself is not that hard although a bit boring and redundant. I start by calling potential students in other countries who have requested information on the school to gauge their interest and their qualifications. What's hard to tell someone in Kenya that to come here and pursue a degree it will cost them $50,000 up front due to visa regulations. – more... I enjoy some of the people I work with but not the management. It's a very micro managed place and even though I consistently out do my goals for the day or week, I'm still micro-managed, given no chance for advancement and given no raise. – less

In any dealings with a school you're subject to hiring freezes and freezes on advancement within a company. That's currently where Full Sail is. They've been within a hiring freeze and subsequently any room for advancement due to financial question marks.

Outside of that this is a great company that focuses on the bettering of young, creative minds – more... and still focuses on the advancement of the employees. Like most schools in this caliber of media and entertainment, change is certain. Be prepared for it. All in all thumbs up! – less

I was in charge of a team of up to 15 people at one time. I was responsible for making sure that they were hitting all of their talking points while speaking with prospective or current students. I would provide feedback daily and pull stats through campus specific software. On top of that, I had to make sure that I was stimulating everyone on my team – more... and making sure that the office culture stayed positive. I worked with a great team of both Agents, other Supervisors, and Managers. My favorite part of the job was being able to provide feedback to one of my Agents, and hearing them using the feedback in the next call. – less

I would go in during lab times and help the students with the projects they were working on. When they didnt need help I would work on my own projects.

A typical day at work is handling inbound/outbound calls from enrolled students with different financial situations that can enable or inhibit a student from starting classes. We exhaust all options to assist students to start classes in a timely manner.I work with teams that consist of a Team leaders and Assistant Team Leaders that work with us in – more... challenging situations that may arise. Our coworkers work together in helping the team achieve a overall goal. When it comes down to it, its all about working as a team and unity we have as a team, The management consists of friendly,diligent, driven individuals that not only help as achieve our daily,weekly, and monthly job goals, but also take the time out to find out your personal goals and care about you as an individual. The hardest about the job is the stress level increase to reach a certain goal at the end on the month. Between the hour commute and inconsistent hours it is challenging to keep a healthy work and life balance. The most enjoyable part of the job is working with great people the frequent changes to our duties that keep my typical day interesting, Another great part of the job are the opportunities for growth within the company. – less

Full Sail University is an amazing place to work. Every day at work in the international department as well as the online department was an enjoyable experience. At Full Sail, management never lets work feel like work. The environment is relaxed and employees are trusted instead of being micro managed. New employees are welcomed and provided with as – more... much help as they need by their co-workers also known as their Full Sail family. The hardest part of the job was to actually go home on time at the end of a work day. Since work never felt like work, many employees would stay after hours and go above and beyond their regular duties in order to help their teams. Working at Full Sail was a great experience and as long as an employee doesn't take advantage of the relaxed environment they will be working at Full Sail for a long time. – less

Responsibilities include checking in and out studio equipment, repairing mic and instrument cables, and stocking inventory.

I had a flexible schedule but worked most days from 9 to 1pm getting work done. Unless I needed to record audio I pretty much just assembled instructional videos. It took about 4 days to get one finished with another 2 hours to fix issues as my superiors saw them. It was a fun experience overall and I learned a lot about the program as well as building – more... quality product with limited tools and time. – less

This company is very well run. The management understands how to treat it's employees, and they really make a major effort in creating an environment that develops each individual.

Full Sail University is a great Company to work for if your career chosen field is in Education Services.

With the recent increase in online student admissions, the advising department has been a bit behind. There is no admission criteria so what you end up with is a large number of students who are trying to live their dream thinking that they will not have to work hard because they have been sold on pipe dreams. General education courses have been "dumbed – more... down" to further promote retention but even this does not work for the students. With all of this being said, advising is a very difficult department to work in with so many new rules and procedures being issued on a trial-by-error status. You are also the official dumping ground for all departments who do not want to work with difficult students. The only redeeming factor is that the department has a wonderful team of co-workers who, unfortunately, also dislike their job as much, if not more, than you do. Management is a tricky aspect since it's still relatively new and they are trying to figure out what to make of the team since there was recently a huge increase of advising staff only for it rather drastically dwindle once more. This should say something about the management and it is a reflection of their leadership. There is an issue of pay where veteran advisors are not making as much as new staff. The veterans are asked to train the new staff who are doing the exact same job as them but for lower pay. Full Sail is a fun place to work with but once in advising, it will become very difficult for you to advance because there is no place to go. Other departments may not hire you because they are aware that advising is struggling and do not want to take away from that team. – less

I am not able to pursue my Commercial Real Estate career in this position.
