2U's learning system is broken and they can't staff enough people to handle all of the issues. Don't know where executive leadership is spending the boatload of money it makes from students, but it isn't hiring people. We can't continue on this... —  read more

Nice work, if you can get it. https://www1.salary.com/2U-INC-Executive-Salaries.html

I hear that these programs are overpriced. What are the prices for these degrees and certificates.

Admissions Counselors at 2U perform work much closer to fraud telemarketing than "counseling." The volume bleeds the human element out of every phone call because you will constantly be striving to hit metrics and enrollment goals. As an AC, you... —  read more 

LAWYERS/MEDIA- PLEASE post your emails below! (Along with any info you're looking for...). This company is VERY, VERY predatory & unethical, and it is our responsibility to protect the public (students and shareholders) by sending info that could be... —  read more 

It's easy to find me. https://collegemeltdown.blogspot.com/

I don't even know where to start but the TLDR = DO NOT WORK HERE. The company profits off of putting students into large amounts of debt when they could get an equally valuable degree from anywhere else for half of the price. They only promote... —  read more

Just curious.

Times are tough as it is, but I’ve never seen a bunch of people that are slowing the work down and hurting their very own company more than the middle managers at 2U. It’s like they fell down from Mars or something, only caring about their ego and... —  read more 

I enjoyed working for this company, but I think we can all agree that I has become an ill environment in which none of us are safe, which results with many of us turning on each other. I believe most of us got it through our heads now, that working... —  read more 

At least when it comes to admissions. We are the most important cog in this company - we ensure its revenue exists in the first place. And yet, we are nothing but metrics to those on top. And those metrics are becoming rediculous and impossible to... —  read more 

None of what is happening right now is the fault of employees. People I work with are among the smartest I have ever met and they all know how to do their jobs. But it's really hard to do your job properly and get good results when our leadership... —  read more 

Many admissions leaders who weren't laid off have already resigned. There is no leadership left, not that it was good anyway.

More layoffs are coming, I swear. Get out now and find a better place to work. They're out there!!

Not sure who it will affect. Be careful.

https://www.dllr.state.md.us/employment/warn.shtml Nothing shows up here because less than 33% of the workforce was laid off. They are keeping numbers below the line so shareholders don't get scared. More to come.
