The DOE is right. We can't expect to enroll 2/month and thrive. However, I was not enrolling 2. But the fact that you kept the 0-2 advisors means there was little work for the higher performers in some markets. You all got greedy and tried to outpace... — read more

What goes around comes around as the good book says. I am a former CEL almost 7 years and judging form the comments ( not the hate or expletive ones ) it seems that the work culture did not change over the last 2 years since my firing. A great... — read more 

I personally am just going to focus on doing my job to the best of my ability. It has always served me well in the past. If layoffs are going to happen we probably cannot stop it. The only thing we can do is do our jobs and roll with the punches. If... — read more 

Pepicello and especially Joe D'Amico, how could employees be your greatest asset and you walked 800 out the door over the last few days and gave them only 6 weeks severance pay....ridiculous and embarrassing...

The people that take time from their "perfect new jobs" to comment about how happy they are they left can suck my fat uopx employeed dick! Chances are your new job is occupying your parents house.

Bottom line, uopx is a business and not a school, if you drink the juice, good luck, so glad to be do ne there and if you defend this shit hole joke of a school.....get real

@Anon-I think you are wrong in saying the recent comments are all "hate". We are ALL well aware of the economy, new laws, and reality. My family is worse off then 4 years ago. I've worked for UOP for 5-6 years. My manager has admitted to making... — read more

Wow, lots of misdirected hate here. Instead of ranting at the owners, you should redirect some of that hate at the government's policies that put businesses like this in a situation where they have to downsize. The last four years have just continued... — read more 

Everyone is so upset about the Campus Director is gone. He wasn't there a year. There were 6 LCs when he started. Now there are 3. He did NOTHING but shoot the s*#t & hovered over EAs. (My fav was him interrupting a student call to say "hi"). Oh... — read more
