Pros

The only good thing you get from working for this company is the relationship you build with your co-workers.

Cons

Basically everything else is a Con while working at Prospect Education. They will set you up with a goal and once you meet it the keep increasing their expectations to ridiculous extents. Mike Dawson is a horrible person and CEO! He has made it his goal to put money in his pocket at the expense of the employees. Finds any way possible to take your well deserved bonuses by finding loopholes to his own severely vague bonus structure plans. Lets people go faster than imaginable and then adds all of their work duties to other employees so that he no longer has to pay for the wages that the person made. Oh and don't forget you will end up having the job duties of various people without receiving a raise. He will let you know that they are only giving a 3% annual raise to employees companywide while he still makes sure to take his lavish trips and leaves employees with nothing. You can literally be the best at what you do and get thrown out like a piece of trash once he is done with you. CAUTION if you enter this company as a director, department head or any other position that is well paid you will be one of the first to be let go! Working for this company has been a huge disappointment and a waste of time.

Thank you for the 5 star review and the kind words! We could not do what we do without great employees like you. Your passion for our students drives the great outcomes like in our recent accreditation visits. Keep up the great work and thank you for all you do! Posted on behalf of Joshua Swayne, CEO.

Pros

When I started off working for Prospect Education, it was known as one of the best companies I worked for. Great management, benefits, fun working environment, and always recognized for my hard work. Great coworkers I can now call friends!

Cons

Employees are punished for the company's lack of financial stability and inconsistent/poor management. Due to the company losing money, employees are now treated less than and all of our hard work that was done yesterday, the previous month, or previous quarter is discarded....even if we made/maintained our department goals. The CEO is extremely greedy and insensible! Not only has he humiliated us by this new "tsunami" thing he has going, which gave most of us hope the company will pick back up, BUT we will all be out of jobs in January 2015 with no severance pay to show some type of appreciation for ALL of our hard work we have provided towards this company. Some of us have been loyal to this company for years and this is what we get...a SLAP IN THE FACE!
