Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?
"Go check out other reviews...there's a ton of them out there. Oh yeah, Admissions Counselor - don't let the title fool you. It's a telemarketer whose job is to call people who never requested the call and convince them to spend up to $60,000 for a degree, whether they are 17 or 70. If you don't, you won't have a job for long."
What don't you like about working at Bridgepoint Education?
"Micromanagement to the nth degree. Everything is monitored and recorded. Everything. Also, the fact they ask you to call people on the DNC list, repeatedly. Isn't that against the law Duh."
What suggestions do you have for management?
"Appreciate your employees and stop misleading and spinning the facts. Obey the laws. Learn that by giving employees more authority or ability to make decisions, they will typically produce better results. The micromanagement might be good for teenagers, but that's about it."
"The root of the problem is for-profit and education is a contradiction. Bridgepoint Education struggles with focus on the bottom line while also offering educational services to students. I have been employed with the organization since 2007 and have seen everything first hand. The company is filled with inexperienced managers and directors who only got their positions because of tenure. Communication within departments is horrible."
"Borderline boiler room operation. A churn and burn culture."
"I've worked here since 2009."
"Worked with the company for 4.5 years. Great culture as long as you're either A) a competitive person or B) not in any of the departments that are numbers driven. Great benefits and on the higher end of the pay scale for the area. I enjoyed my time there and was sad to be laid off."
"I worked at Bridgepoint in the products department for about 2 years. Love the department but the management of Bridgepoint is lacking."
"I've worked for Bridgepoint for six years. Instead of engaging people with professional development and opportunities to grow, they try to motivate employees with big salaries, generous benefits, and fears of layoffs. Some good people work there, but there's a serious lack of leadership."
"I've worked at Bridgepoint for over 6 years. It has been a great company that values its employees. Bridgepoint has succeeded in becoming a disruptor in the education space."
"Overall my work is fun and challenging."
What do you like about working at Bridgepoint Education?
"The people I work with, and my direct management stack."
Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?
"Ask for a lot as raises are matrix based, and once you hit the top 3rd of your pay band you won't be getting much annually."
What don't you like about working at Bridgepoint Education?
"The upper management, in particular the CEO. He views all employees as if this is there first job, even the professional employees, and treats them as replaceable cogs."

"I worked with this company from year 2012."
