When you consider that in order to get hired anywhere else, directors and above will need to list an hourly type position, 10% is nothing compared to what they will end up making. Two things you should NEVER list on a resume: 1) you earned a degree... — read more

CCi Case Study
Seeing as though CCi and Socle aren't related, wouldn't it be a good idea for Socle to post a new case study of all the good they've done for another company?? In fact, if we paid a student $100 to provide three random figures, each under 100, we... — read more

Single sysyem & infrastrucre will be the downfall.
I hope everyone realized that the efforts of IT over the years to standardize all the systems and infrastructure at the corporate offices and the campuses will be a HUGE deterrent for potential buyers. It is not easy to break apart the lines of... — read more
Should we have bake sales to help save jobs and dreams?
How many sheets of paper will a cookie buy?
We cannot afford for you to print on a single side of a sheet of paper.
But don't worry about your paycheck!
Why did we hire so many Program Leads and Program Directors for online when we knew we had problems?
Didn't lots of these people just get hired on in January? Was this really a smart idea?? Micromanaging at its best!

All this doom & gloom! I’m sure everyone will feel much, much better after the Q4 earnings release.
Come on now, it's business as normal.
Save jobs and dreams! Smile and dial.
What's really happening on the 4th floor?
Do you think anyone up there feels even a little bad for the employees or students? Or is there pay class so high, that we are mere ants from their towers?!?! It's so sad that none of the emails to anyone is expressing remorse. At least when this... — read more
10 weeks? Seems like an eternity for CCi.

Reduce Toner Usage: Save Jobs and the Environment!!
CCI gets a prize for saving the environment, jobs and dreams!!! Go CCI. What have you done for us lately, SOCLE?
"Combined, all of the actions described above will save approximately $10 million annually."
That's a lot of work for $10M. And $10M is only the beginning of CCi's deep financial problems. Where are they going to come up with the roughly $360M to pay the debt that's due in the next 8 months? I can almost see those VPs sitting in the airport... — read more

If you see any highly paid management having lunch with recruiters, what should you do?
Take the int and start looking yourselves . . .you want them to get all the good jobs?
I doubt the 10% pay cut is going to last longer than 10 weeks.
I predict it will be increased before 10 weeks are over.
10% pay cut could last longer
We were informed by our RVPO that the pay reduction could last longer than the 10 weeks especially if you don't start doing better. Since when are they allowed to use the reduction in pay now as a punitive measure? I'm not sure that's legal.
Are Everest student THE worst you've ever had?

If we use our Intelligent a heart training and say our Affirmations
Will that save our tanking school?!?!
We at Socle know how to service our clients!
It's so easy to extract the big dollars out.
