Great Work Place
Admissions Manager (Current Employee), Mokena, IL – June 7, 2013
The shift I work isn't a set shift, but I do have a little room to move my schedule around when needed. The most enjoyable part of my job would be when I see my students walk across the stage.

Health Sciences Instructor
Instructor (Former Employee), Saint Cloud, MN – June 5, 2013
Pros: good hours, good for family and personal life
Cons: losing so many coworkers to other job opportunities, losing the best.
Instructing approximately 4-8 hours a day, such a variety of students!
I learned that you never stop learning.
Management was very money driven.
Most coworkers were office people in charge of tuition, student advisory, enrollment. I enjoyed being around other instructors, learned so much from them.
Hardest part was dealing with students who thought – more... they deserved an A, no matter what sort of work they turned in.
Most enjoyable was that feeling when you know a student has had that aha moment and gets what you have been teaching. – less

I was a work study there, so work study pluses and minuses apply.
IT work study (Former Employee), Eagan, MN – April 25, 2013
Pros: friendly coworkers, every day was a joy to work there.
Cons: it was temporary.
I really loved working there even though it was a temporary job dependent on the class hours I took per quarter and the job security was as secure as that. I would have loved to work there as a full time employee if they were hiring. I did a fairly good job in my capacity as IT work study, if I do say so myself.

Setting goals to reach student success
Student Academic Advisor (Current Employee), Fargo, ND – March 18, 2013
Pros: flexible schedule, a quarterly/yearly schedule of events and tasks
Cons: salary
I have been with Rasmussen College since 2008. I have different job titles in my tenure there including Administrative Assistant, Student Records Coordinator, and Student Advisor. Each position has allowed me to utilize my strengths and also push me to work on my weaknesses. Multi-tasking is something that I have been able to succeed in doing in each – more... of these positions and it has been noted as one of my strengths. I have been told on numerous reviews that if I am assigned a task my management team knows it will be done on time and done correctly. – less

Great opportunity to change lives through education
Community Development and Marketing Manager (Current Employee), Green Bay, WI – March 18, 2013
Pros: work-life balance, vacation and sick time
Cons: job security, private sector
Rasmussen provides students an educational opportunity to a demographic that is largely under served, those being the unemployed, returning adults, single parents and many times those individuals that just need encouragement and support. The pride shown in offering Support to these students through our programs, career services, academics and student – more... services is second to none. The team of individuals who work toward this goal are dedicated to their students in a unique and uplifting way, always asking what is in the best interest of the student and working towards that goal. – less

As Online Education Sales Goes, a Good Place to work.
Program Manager (Former Employee), Orlando, FL – March 13, 2013
Pros: good trainng; good pay; decent benefits
Cons: ethically you will feel pressured to enroll people who really shouldn't be in college, no real room for advancement.
Good Trainng; Good Pay; Decent benefits...Not any room for real advancement, but pays pretty well as Education Sales Jobs go. Work environment is positive. Job can get repetitive, and ethically you will feel pressured to enroll people who really shouldn't be in College.

They have a positive work place. They train there employees very well.
Admissions Manager (Former Employee), Maitland, FL – January 15, 2013
Pros: positive work place.
Cons: high turn over rate.
It is a solid company that treats their employees well. The managers worked hand in hand with the staff. They did reviews on a regular basis so we were able to see the areas that we could improve. They would show our strenths and weaknesses. It was a fun place to work. The most enjoyable part of the job was working with the clients. I loved to learn – more... and be trained on new products. My co-workers were fun to work with and they were always willing to help each other. I learned how to enroll student and get them through all of the steps before they could start class. They had to pass an assesment test and be approved for financial aid. I would help them get through the first week of classes so they knew how the class worked, when assignment were due and how to reach their teacher. I would follow up with them often to make sure they were doing well. I needed to find out if they needed help and the ways I could get them that help. Overall it was a fun place to work and was very rewarding. – less

Horrible management and lots of work for little pay
Adjunct (Current Employee), Remote – December 20, 2012
I teach online at several institutions and this by far is one of the worst ones I have ever worked for. The faculty management is about extreme micromanagement. The pay is lower than most other online schools and it's more trouble than it is worth. Only work at this place for a check if you are desperate.
