Pros

Reasonable pay rate, hybrid schedule, Culture within admissions team is friendly and supportive. Great opportunity to access education/free tuition for employees.

Cons

Complete disconnect of upper management/leadership in respect to the population this organization serves. The University is presented as serving under-served populations but recent changes to programs, tuition and policy directly contradicts this.

Excelsior University Response

Thank you for your feedback. We are glad you find the pay, hybrid schedule, and team culture positive. We are continuously assessing and working on aligning our policies and programs with our mission to serve under-served populations and appreciate your advice on defining our institutional identity.

Pros

There is a good work / life balance. Did not feel overly stressed and micromanaged because of my colleagues.

Cons

Where to start. From the moment of getting hired, it was very obvious to me this was a corporation pretending to be a caring higher ed university. Every decision they made is entirely for profit and to cut as many corners as possible. HR was fully onboard with allowing a toxic work environment to continue all because everyone at this company is a yes man going all the way up to the top, They are totally willing to sacrifice student learning and experience all for the next dollar. Genuinely one of the most poorly run companies I have ever seen full of toxicity from the ground up. Do not fall for it - this "university" does not care about you in the slightest!!
