I was let go Monday
And I just want to say. ..... I have my first interview today! I'm excited to have a fresh start somewhere after spending a substantial amount of time at UPX. I feel the time I spent there has prepared me to do well anywhere. UPX treated me well... — read more
Severance Package
I have a quick question for any employees that were already let go. Do you know what the severance package consist of? You dont have to go into details, but was it a set amount of weeks or months across the board or did they give you x amount of... — read more
Poor Upper Management
I would like to say upper MGT has done a poor poor job. They are so worried about the stockholders they forgot where it all started. From the CEO on down. Lacking professional MGT skills. Lacking skills in general....Here is how you win UOFP upper... — read more
Only way to get back at the company
If you got let go and saw something unethical or illegal taking place now is the time to blow the whistle. This place is destroying lives just like Corinthian, ITT, Devry, and all of these schools need to go bankrupt. It should piss you off to know... — read more
So sorry to hear about the lay offs...
Unbelievable that there are posts stating that UOP is the best and the need to trim the fat needed to be done. How many years did these rumors go through the buildings like wildfire every month? Probably since the beginning. Anyone remember the term... — read more
Free future planning help / 401k rollovers..
Hello everyone. I will miss working with you. I, too, was laid off after nearly 13 years with UOP. It has been a remarkable roller-coaster journey together and I was proud to work to fulfill the mission for which the University was established. I... — read more
A light hangs from its ballast, throwing shadows
against the walls of the halls of the RPDC. I walk, looking for others. The break room is barren, a spider has made its home in the popcorn machine. I round the ITOC. Black. But there are sounds. Unnatural sounds, rising and falling, mournful sounds... — read more
Wow
Amazing how bad they are bleeding.
APOL down 20% in last two days, trading at just over $13 at this hour.
This company is finished.
UoPX Whistleblowers Tried to Help
Several UoPX whistleblowers have tried to help University of Phoenix, but University of Phoenix and Apollo Group did not listen to staff, teachers, and students. Aldrich and Nolan are two of the last whistleblowers of note, but there were many more... — read more
The aftermath
I'm lucky to still have a job but not looking forward to being there. So many good people who were my friends will not be there today. I'll try not to throw up in the faces of the shit managers and dip shit directors.
Mad Max Analogy
"it is by my hand.... You will rise... From the ashes.... Of UOP...." (Satire ....) ;)
How many people talked to the HLC?
How many people have emailed John Hausaman at the Higher Learning Commission (HLC) and expressed your concerns? My guess is very few. To those who have reconsidered this option, Mr. Hausman's email is jhausaman@hlcommission.org
I have a massive throbber with all the scoopy news regarding the anal poundings administered to turds
More raping to come for many more liars in the weeks to come.
There are people that enrolled less students than you, have no degrees and are still working at UOPX today. You should rally together!
Find out why you were "laid off" and join forces to sue Apollo for discriminating against you. I work for HR and there are hundreds of people currently employed with no degrees that barely enroll. If you get a half way decent lawyer it will be found... — read more
Testing...testing...1,2,3....is this thing on?? Can the higher ups hear this? Because it is time to take notes...
Todays layoffs needed to happen. I know it is a hard fact to face, but it was nessesary. The layoffs were not the problem, how those let go were chosen, now that is the problem. University of Phoenix grew too big too fast and in the process many... — read more

UoPX is "Modernizing" not Declining
You have to listen to the Earnings Call. Lots of good questions about cost cutting--and lots of lame answers. You can listen here.......................................... http://biz.yahoo.com/cc/4/144934.html
UOPX is NOT closing!
Please folks, the financials are public. UOPX has $1.4 Billion in the bank. They took a small loss last quarter, not that big of a deal. Looking forward, they are bleeding enrollments and student. Long term, this place is headed to the ground. The... — read more

Any more details on total numbers? Any other departments other than student services and enrollment affected? I have a few former bosses in academic affairs I'd love to hear about getting canned.
UOP to close
It's been announced that UOP will be closing effective later this year. This is happening because of the lies and greed of executives. Employers will not recognize the degrees. Guess all the shifting and smoke and mirrors wasn't enough to beat the... — read more
Praise UOP
UOP is a great organization. Changes are often required. Those who are laid off leave with dignity and peacefully.
