Thread regarding University of Phoenix layoffs

You can cut the tension with a....

I'm in the ACC. The department which rarely sees the cuts. Mostly because when they layoff eras they pass on their cold calling to us. It's weird calling people who were assigned ers already.. And then reassigning them to a new one. Awkward not telling we called them because their ers were layer off.

Now we have relocated to another building... A smaller one.

The supervisors are hypervigilent sending us emails and coaching us for minute issues aka: coming back from lunch a minute late. Or being too insistent or not enough. Micromanagement time. Seriously for once I'm actually seeing supervisors look like they have a job.. Which is to make us miserable. Then pass around ice pops to make us feel better.

I learned a lot working here. How not to take no for answer. How to feign concern. Give folks hope that our diploma will get them a job. To prey on the most vulnerable population and sell them a dream.

I stuck it through to witness first hand what happens when people rely on school to get them___. Fools gold!

@670--you are either really dumb or a pathological liar. Sorry, UOP is a boiler room operation with sleazy salespeople and managers who push ERs to enroll ANYONE. All of a sudden UOP now wants to implement real assessment exams for incoming students--too late. Stop lying for this fake school--UOP is in peril and there is no backing away from the precipice now. They will be a small, online-only vocational school by the end of the decade. This is good for everyone.

"Waiting the storm" you are hilarious! It's not called the ACC anymore, geez. I wish people would stop calling it that. You should really proofread before you post. Some of what you stated does not make sense. What tension do you speak of? No tension on my team, it has been business as usual. Also, the new building is BIGGER than the old building. We lost a few big conference rooms but that's it. We gained more break rooms, more bathrooms. I do not know every manager but I am familiar with quite a few of them and I must say they put in longer hours than most of us do but hey, maybe they aren't working as hard as I always thought. Maybe all those meetings are really just gossip sessions and perhaps when they are at their desks they are simply watching netflix. Some people are unfortunate and have micro managers, sounds like you are one of them. No emails from my manager regarding my breaks or lunches or bathroom getaways. LOL. You talk like we are sales people. We do not sell, we aren't pushy. It sounds like you are really unhappy here. Perhaps you should volunteer for the layoff. In case you have forgotten we have UOP grads at many fortune 100 companies and many other happy people whom have graduated with a degree from us. Why bite the hand that feeds you? If you do get the pink slip I suggest writing for a tabloid publication; your imagination is very creative and it appears to be easy for you to embellish the true facts of a series of events. We actually get paid to do a pretty simple job. Chin up!
