If Deloitte cooked the books for ITT Tech (ESI) would they be just as helpful to Apollo Group?
ITT Tech just reported a $56 million turnaround (from a $27 million dollar loss in 2013 to a $29 million profit in 2014) with Deloitte as their new auditor. Do you think Deloitte could do an equally good job for Apollo Group/Universirt of... — read more
YOUR DEGREE
FAKE EDUCATION ALERT
In your opinion...
If Corinthian was the most sleazy and corrupt of all 'for-profits' and if ITT is almost as bad, who takes the third and fourth place?
How low can wages go? How about $3 per hour?
Apollo Education Group and University of Phoenix can continue to cut labor costs, especially as it grows globally. How low? How about $3 an hour?................................ https://www.elance.com/samples/edsoup-lead-generation/78355974/
After UOP collapses can I start a business selling UOP degrees online
Im thinking I can continue selling the fake degrees online. If the parent company is no longer existant why not start a buesiness that still sells the fake University of Phoenix degrees at a lower price with less overhead to whoever wants to buy... — read more
Directors work people, I have seen this with my own eyes.
Just last week I noticed a few roaming around with carts of candy bars feeding the animals. Some others were giving out stale nacho chips. Others were roaming the floors taking pictures. I wonder how I apply for one of these positions. It seems the... — read more
WARNING** To every UOP and Apollo employee:
FYI: we have recieved over 750 computer access change orders so far for June. Which means so far those 750 won't have access. Get the picture? On top of that, we were told and are being given ot to process more. I am hopeing it's not just a mass... — read more
Directors and managers are a big joke!
People in positions for 10+ years don't even know what the floor is like. They complain when they have to take a call more than once a week. Many ask advisors how processes are done because they have no idea. All of these people need to be cycled... — read more
A place which represents higher education yet half of the managers hold nothing but a high school diploma. Six figure salaries for people with
no teams. Black's who are complete imbeciles put into positions of power who hold a clear bias agenda against anyone who is not black. Managers who push case closure over quality and true review of student accounts. An employment pool of nothing but... — read more

Family Guy episode 5/17/15
Stewie has his laptop taken away and quips, " I can't be without my laptop, how on ever will I get my law degree from the University of Phoenix". Hey, idiots, degrees from UOP are store bought idiocy. LMAO. Employers laugh at your degrees, dumbarses.
Is UOP next?
ITT in California is prohibited from enrolling any veterans using post 911 benefits going forward. It's expected that UOP and EDMC schools will be choked off from VA funds this summer/ fall. Bye UOP--you frauds are finished.
Thank Godness there are lots of jobs in Phoenix so I got employed right away but I have to say:
Elaine V. & Ryan H. Are tied for WORST manager ever! Both no nothing and do nothing. Ryan should come out of the closet and Elaine should learn something about the military. Both are horrible at their jobs. Sad
UOP rips off everyone!!!
Many know UOP is a for-profit school and yes they rip people off for there education. To make matter worse is the requirements that they are cramming down the employees throats. Each Enrollment Representative daily duties are to get 70 or more dials... — read more

Loves a challenge?
Swartz leaves APOL to join Zulilly--a company that has lost 75% of its value in the last year (high of $40, now hovering around $10). Is he that good? Does he love a challenge? An alternative hypothesis-going forward Zulilly (even in its current... — read more

Dear President Tim - here is my opinion: You can appoint and hire all the provosts, VPs , etc you desire and will not affect change. The current directors and managers are from a culture where anything goes and have been in place for too long. They... — read more
