Good afternoon,
My name is Greg Argos. I'm a reporter at CBS 5 News. Can someone who is affected or knows about the layoffs happening at the University of Phoenix please give me a call. My direct number is 602.763.8748.
We're trying to get more information about what is going on. Thank you so much!
Hey Greg can you also talk to some former students and maybe show how their lives are total crap after going to this stupid school? Employers laughing at them when they try to get a job and constant calls from Sallie Mae 35 times a day demanding half of what they make? Rotten way for these students to live while the executives for places like this dine on caviar and play golf 250 days a year at the taxpayers expense.
Greg, your article in AZLife said 600 axed today. Others say 1700.... What's the number?
Hey CBS guy, here's a news flash for you: Those that got severance packages can't talk to you and those that are lucky enough to retain their jobs (for now) are not gonna go on record either so go pray on the big dogs if you please.
1700 people 30% of the school.
my son was laid off afer 10 years 3 kids and a mortgage ..sad and scary
Got laid off today!!! Just one of many
Here's the great news, Eric Snyder who has been brown nosing his way up the ladder was let go! That guy would harass employees until they quit. The school of education told management not to hire new people but they did about 3 months ago. They were part of the layoffs..
I left on my own a few weeks ago. Gave my two weeks and was let go the same day with my 2 weeks of pay. Here's the difference between me and that company, I care about my students. There was no one to take immediate care of them. Although I was happy to have my 2 weeks of pay I still needed a couple days to get those students over to someone who could help them. Hopefully they went to a different schoo. One that actually cares about the student.
Wow cbs mind your own business, you werent laid off so bug off. This is for people who work or worked for uop
It's unfortunate that you weren't on the list. Freaking idiot.
It was sad, people have worked there for 13plus years just let go because corporate America is bull shit, pregnant mothers were laid off, awesome managers, hard working people, they have no clear definition of what's expected in our job description. I was not laid off but I am very angry with that place right now, very angry
Hah! I was there, but I'll let the corporate liars spew their poison to you. It was total chaos
