A good friend of mine and her co-workers that have worked for the University of Phoenix for the past 15 years were let go today because of their salaries. Never mind the hard work and loyalty they had for the company. Unbelievable treatment of... — read more
There are no planned layoffs according to Raghu Krishnaiah
Per Raghu's town hall yesterday, he said there are no planned layoffs. I'm guessing the college is waiting on the buyout to happen first before making a decision like that.

Quality
Open Question: The Quality Assurance folks for the Qualifying Center were all laid off on Thursday 9/29/16. The question is, what do you think will become of the Qualifying Center?
When is the financial aid expected to be revoked or suspended? With the lack of news from the HLC and DOE, this does not bode well as both
review dates have elapsed and there has not been a peep out of any outlet. It is clearly the calm before the storm. Everyone around me has been hearing these rumors for days now. Can anyone provide any news on why the deal was not approved by the DOE... — read more
Doomsday! Well the time has come and gone. The Department of Education had until 9-28 to green light this joke of a deal.
This is the second time they have missed it and now is scheduled for November sometime. The stock is now set to drop like a rock. The buying the last few days was nothing but speculation on the DOE approving this deal. All these goons thinking they... — read more
Seems curious that so many former UOP Directors and VP's have taken a long while to land new positions after they were laid off.
Seems curious that so many former UOP Directors and VP's have taken a long while to land new positions after they were laid off. It seems that many have taken positions at v. small companies. Seems that not many are finding the real quality positions... — read more
DOE to suspend ALL financial aid to UOP in November. UOP will be wiped out and close its doors before the end of 2016.
Students who feel they have been defrauded MUST contact the DOE to file a claim before UOP files for bankruptcy protection. Spread the word.
Stay thirsty my friends.
The Department of Education has until tomorrow night to approve this deal which they are not going to. It is funny to see how many of these people are trying to drive up the stock in hopes of a quick payday. When the deal does not get approved... — read more
Does anyone know
Does anyone know if U o P is going to be sponsoring a xmas party this year?
To all of you who want to leave, leave.
The facts are below: You are going to get fired anyways and there is NO requirement to pay severance. Just ask your pals who were wiped out by cci and Itt. No matter what new job you get, you are going to be taking a big pay cut. Since most of you... — read more
The end is near! Get those boxes ready!
How do I know this? The breakroom is BARE. No sugar, no coffee stirrers, no coffee cups, the vending machine is nearly empty. We're doomed. Doomed! No seriously. Will there be layoffs? Yes, but I don't think until after the buyout....which is... — read more

Has anyone heard rumors of Enrollment Mgr's firing Enrollment Rep's for any reason to reduce severance packages and to reduce payroll, etc?
I was fired and I was with the company for a long time and I was the top producer on my team ! They are bunch of a--holes !! Watch your back Enrollment !! I think they are doing this because it looks better for them and less Enrollment Reps to lay... — read more

Start packing people. An email is going out tomorrow, Tuesday at the latest.

Form all apparent indicators, University of Phoenix is done. The quality of the original posts and comments on thelayoff.com are one indicator. The organization's racism, sεxism, classism, and distaste for its customer-students have been obvious for... — read more
Friends at QC/ACC
Hi everyone I use to work with. Just heard from an ER about some ERs recieving new leads from websites and not routed through QC/ACC. Just Heads up to ACC/QC.
I can't reg anyone, all these nogs must be at their job looting. My entire team has had 1 reg this month. This place will be closing up soon
Time to go unload some Filbertos.
I have nothing to lose at this point as my days are numbered like yours. Might as well provide some insight to what is proposed.
Most benefits to end or be reduced drastically come November. The 401K matching to end. You knew this was coming. Prepare to start paying full price for your fake degree as well. No more family reimbursement so I hope no one is in the middle of their... — read more
Deal is dead and every insider knows. Why else would the stock tank this bad in less than 5 days? They have lost
nearly $200 million in market cap as a result. Short interest appears completely normal so this tells you that investors are unloading the turd. No one wants to touch this money pit. If any hope remained the shares would be trading north of $10. It... — read more
As projected, the stock will be in the $6 range within the next two weeks. Everyone knows this. It is time to face reality people.
There is not much time left. Polish off that resume and get it submitted elsewhere. The sooner you beat the crowd the better. Rumors are swirling of an all out ITT type closure where everyone comes into work and the doors are chained shut. Don't be... — read more
How is it possible???
Hello everyone, I have a question for the EA'S, how is it possible to convince students to enroll into UoP? No one in their right mind should go to UoP, so how do you do it? Also, how do you enroll students and not feel bad about it? The company is... — read more
Its all about the money
To this day we are forced to get referrals. We are not just told we have to ASK but we HAVE to get atleast 6. They told us the reason for referrals was because they converted at such a high rate. I think the real reason is that probably 95% of the... — read more

About the deal
If the school is bought out access to financial aid will suspend for 30 days. This will show how many FA students UOP will have on the books. Make a note! No FA for 30 days.
Subprime loan bubble is bursting
http://www.pbs.org/video/2365840612/
During the senior meeting they were concerned about not losing aid but when they will lose aid. Rumors are swirling around November where they
will be required to start guaranteeing these loans and placing a large deposit just to keep aid. This is exactly what put ITT out of business. With voluntary separations coming again, many are going to take it this time around. This is the last of... — read more
Shorts covered yesterday and back to the s house it went today. It will be in the $6 range at the end of next week.

Weekend at Bernie's remake
Management is trying to convince the public that UOPX is still alive. This place is where dreams die, not where "we rise". Get out and start living.
