It sucks being layedoff. But I used a professional career advisor to help me. it was professionalcareeradvisor.com.

Well maybe the uop decision makers do read this site. I found out that across the country DOE'S have been fired in an attempt to save money. They cut as many ea's as they could but now the upper folks are scared. This has already happened in... — read more

Hey At Peace I think the reason you have made it on the floor is that you been sucking some managerial pole. Keep on chugging the corporate cum f***face!

Attention: At Peace ----- In theory, if one continues to better his or herself and grow personally and professionally, one will have a long career at UOP. However, the “Peter Principle” notes employees rise to his or her level of incompetence. So, as... — read more 

you sound upset. relax before you have a stroke.

First of all, management has stressed that enrollment representatives are not "sales people" but they are advisors helping individuals to obtain educational goals at their school of choice. Even more, you must have your head "Buried In The Sand" if... — read more

Any corporation that has thousands of front line sales people will naturally have high turn over rates. I can only assume that those who use this forum to complain about UOP are those who could not make it on the floor for one reason or another. It's... — read more

Who is the lawsuit against and who is bringing it?

I am wondering if we were laid off due to the new lawsuit against UOPX. After all, the lawsuit became known on 5/27 and a few days later jobs started dissolving.........hmmmmmmmm!

tired of having to lie to students just to make a living? I used to be an EC and had to get out? I work from home. If you are interested please let me know. No MLM crap or scam. Never will ask for a penny upfront or anything like that. I used to be... — read more

It is obvious that upper management is nervous and do not know what they are doing. In paranoia because the government keeps investigating them and uncovering their wrongdoings and exposing the truth to the public, they are swapping out the employees... — read more

Of course, like any business, if your revenue is down and you have to make cuts, then you make them. BUT 8 new EA positions opened up in Sac and I KNOW they're laying people off. So the people who are not enrolling are completely safe and the ones in... — read more

Does anyone know what positions/titles were eliminated? Sad that they are laying off people and then walking in the new hires behind them.

I just got a great review and a raise. Then I walk in today and get laid off!!! I'm in the SE region. does anyone know what all positions they terminated? Its funny because one of the Dallas employees came in the other day and was asking if we had... — read more

Who was the SE Director?

Today the Southeast Region has laid off Associate Directors. Who is next? How can the school operate if they continue to lay off tenured people? Makes me think twice about putting my UOP degree on my resume.

They are trying to find anything on anyone to write them up for so they can walk them out. People in our area are being written up for stupid things like lagging in 8 minutes late over the last 6 months. 8 freaking minutes!!!

did they get a severance package? bracing for the wave to hit east coast

Did anyone hear about the 100 layoffs in IT, and that they shut down IS3 and other systems on their way out?

Beam me up scottie - because all systems ARE NOT A GO! @ the University of Phoenix and that is putting it bluntly. Someone give me a beer.

I can verify below

It is happening again, this time in Online Academic Affairs and Axia Academic Affairs. In fact, they've apparently merged. I know nothing else, but I personally know people who were walked out today.

You "can't be fired for numbers" but they will and are finding anything they can to use against the employee. Regardless of 250 or 57, the company is not secure. Maybe if they would hire Managers and Directors with degrees they would have better... — read more
