Pros

Family owned, private company with a ton of career growth potential. The company is growing and often promotes from within. I started almost 3-4 years ago and already have been promoted twice. Fair benefits and lots of company-wide activities to bring employees together. They have a wellness program to promote a healthy lifestyle which, once completed you get partial reimbursement for your Medical Insurance. Gaining growth on a technology stand-point. Willing to invest time and money into their employees. Leader in industry. They are a solid company that isn't going anywhere but up. They will continue to go which provides job stability and growth for all employees. Committed to giving back to the community. They have lots of programs and volunteer opportunities for local and national charities and organizations.

Cons

Communication within the company is BAD. Reps in the field, as well as employees at Corporate get mixed messaging about policies, new products, and updates. There is no consistency and it is hard to give customers the correct answer. Departments such as Customer Service, Inside Sales and Tech Support are not on the same page. Customers are often bounced around between departments. There's a lot of seasoned employees. There are not a lot of young people within the company. Although they are working on hiring younger employees, it is hard for a young employee to come in and feel energized about the job since they are surrounded by people who have been with the company for years and set in their ways. On boarding and new employee training is lacking.

Pros

Chamberlain is a highly variable place to work. Everything depends on what team you are working on. Some teams will have managers who will fight for you and help build you up, others not so much. I have more or less grown up with the company and have seen it go from being owned by a private family to being owned by Blackstone and all between. Every year I ask myself, "is this the year I leave". My answer is usually no, as where else will be better when I am at least in a good position? Summer fridays are pretty great though.

Cons

Yearly reorgs are a constant drag. Some of the most CG-blooded people I have ever known are somehow always the first to get sent to the wood chipper. People flail around and react. There is no forward thought. Just constant reaction to whatever words the executive population utters. We have been 'transforming' for the near decade I have worked here. But what are we even transforming to? All I have seen is us transforming into yet another soulless company. Benefits have been getting crushed. My wonderful and amazing 401k service contribution was ripped away and replaced with a far less beneficial amount. If you aren't on a good team, or have a good manager, your chance for advancement will be near impossible. Constant 'do more with less'
