What do you like about working at Education Management?
"The pay is good and there are some really good people that work there as well. I enjoy providing quality service to my students and what I have learned about the Education Industry overall."
Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?
"The pay and benefit package are phenomenal. That is great. However, DO NOT work at this company if you aren't numbers-driven. It is a VERY high-pressure, sales environment. This is not a company to come into with any dreams of promotional/advancement opportunities. Unfortunately that takes a lot of time (around 5-10 years) to ever happen and most people burn out by then."
What don't you like about working at Education Management?
"The product we sell is not the product that the students are actually getting. Management tries to brainwash you into believing that you are changing lives when you know it isn't true. And they subtly threaten you to get more students. Now there are layoffs but it's supposed to be secret. There are a lot of shady happenings behind closed doors:("
What suggestions do you have for management?
"Unfortunately the company does not care about the EXTREMELY high turnover rate and wants to burn out employees. My direct manager is really good and loves the company. Unfortunately she is burned out and can't really even function because she's so stressed. The students are nothing but $$$ to the company and it's difficult to do a job knowing that what we sell is not what the students are going to experience."
