So I sell the program everyday but my thoughts are why? There are no promotions to anyone that isn't mormon and even more so now when you are not getting paid any substantial increases. Unless you are already an executive enrollment counselor you... — read more

I just informed Senator Harkin that the University of Phoenix does not verify student's GED scores or high school diplomas. The University has the student sign a form agreeing that the information provided is true, but again, the University does not... — read more 

Thanks for the responses. @KEEPITREAL: I'd love to talk with you offline (by email or phone); you're a former Enrollment Counselor, I take it? Re: "REG" status -- former campus directors who left 2 to 3 years ago that I've talked to told me about the... — read more 

There are many students that drop after the first day because the correct expectations were not set - the EA didn't really take the time to understand the student's needs (non-degree) and so the student just dropped...this happens about 35% of the... — read more 

FORPROFITRESEARCH- The I am not aware of the drop status you are referring to. I have not heard it used in enrollment anyway. There are students that are in"REG" status which means that they have been financially cleared to start. The student may... — read more 

LOL! I love my typing error...Learn the difference between Right to Work and At Will Employment.

PLEASE UPX EMPLOYEES LEARN THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN Right to Work vs Right to Work. There is a difference and know your rights.

FOR RESEARCH- You are on to something regarding how many students UPX actually has enrolled and actively attending. Ask away on questions about UPX. I know that some employees have been recording meetings and have been saving information. Best of... — read more 

I'm an equities (stock) researcher. I'm covering Apollo Group (APOL). I'd love to talk to former employees about the lay offs that have been going on at UoP. Email me at forprofitresearch@bigfoot.com. Also: APOL claims that there are about 400,000... — read more 

There needs to be a support group for employees and former employees of UPX. I am not sure that employees and former employees understand the amount of stress in which one works under at UPX. It would be interesting to see a health study completed on... — read more 

UPX management is full of BS. The P2 is a joke! I have been taping meetings at this company for a while. I may be sending copies to Department of Education, and local media so the truth can start to be told. Management keeps having to tell employees... — read more 

Only the Mormons get promoted. Even the ones that don't have a degree or a clue how to be professional. I haven't been laid off but it would have been a good reason to move on. :)

Wow, there still seems to be a lot of speculative talk about lay offs but no real factual information. And for those who hope to get a severance package, don't believe it. You will be told you'll get "X" amount of money, medical insurance and so on... — read more

All this "mormon" stuff is crazy. I've been at the company for years and have met no more mormons than jews, or catholics, or any other religion. Running the company? You people are crazy.

Did teams get let go on 4/5? Not only should we quesion if we need Co-CEO's do we need Co-Senior Directors? All of this Co-ing needs to cut and the Mormom leadership needs to start letting their friends go to reduce costs and dead weight.

Wasn't it yesterday? Specialty group - employee team and directors? Online phoenix corporate? Take heed

I heard more people were laid off today - does anyone know anything about this?

I think it is crazy even thinking about letting more employees on the floor go. When will Upper Management realize there are Managers, Assistant Directors, Directors, VPs, Sr. VPs and higher that don't have a clue and collect 6 figure incomes. The... — read more

What is MW and HC? What does that stand for? Existing and former employees should not hesitate to mention the names of problematic managers. Perhaps if more people speak out, this might send a strong message to the entire company about how they need... — read more 

We need to start calling managers, directors on up out by name. And continue to do so until UPX 'leadership' is downsized so that good employees can work ethically. Needing to go are some male leaders in MW HC to start!

Recording for sale! Employees need to start recording the crap that gets said at UPX. These recordings could be made into a reality show...worth millions! LOL!

Actually Ball State University has on their website: Education Redefined http://cms.bsu.edu/ It is interesting how Univ of Phoenix indicates they are redefining education.

Just to show the world, here is an e-mail that was issued by an Enrollment Counselor to all employees in the Northeast Region in August 2010. He also attached a video tape of his manager sleeping on the job. One day, I might actually post the video... — read more
