Impactful research role - Researcher Empowerly Employee Review

Structure, ability to choose caseload by grade level, continuing education opportunities like sessions with former admissions officers, admin staff are responsive, company is growing quickly

Not many protections for individual admissions counselors

The team itself was fine. The office had a decent natural light, for what that is worth.

• I came in expecting to actually learn the industry, build real skills, and grow into something better, but instead I was trapped doing the same mindless tasks over and over for two years with no real progress at all. There was no mentorship, no real development, no meaningful career guidance. • Growth conversations were met with empty responses about bandwidth and next quarter. • Watching new hires get opportunities like conferences while others stayed stuck doing repetitive work was incredibly frustrating. • For a company this size, the complete absence of any real career structure is shocking. • People leave constantly because it quickly becomes obvious that nothing changes and there is nowhere to grow. • You do not build a career in this place, you just waste time until you finally realize it.
