I worked for Avalon in both admissions and leadership roles and ultimately left because the…read moreorganization's values no longer aligned with my own. The most significant challenge was what I perceived as a disconnect between leadership expectations and the realities of campus operations. Admissions teams were often expected to meet aggressive enrollment goals while managing constantly shifting priorities, limited resources, and inconsistent communication. Much of my role involved translating unclear or reactive direction into something representatives could realistically execute. In my experience, enrollment volume was prioritized more heavily than retention, student preparedness, and long-term student success. This created confusion around performance expectations and what outcomes were truly valued. I observed situations where high enrollment numbers appeared to receive greater recognition than efforts focused on retention, student readiness, and long-term outcomes. I also observed inconsistencies in recognition, advancement opportunities, compensation practices, workload distribution, and communication that negatively impacted morale. Many talented employees worked extremely hard to support students and improve operations, but feedback and recommendations from frontline staff often seemed to go unaddressed despite recurring challenges. Another concern was the culture within leadership. Rather than fostering collaboration, there were times when competition, poor communication, and uneven information sharing created unnecessary tension between teams and departments. This often resulted in employees acting as intermediaries rather than being empowered to work together directly and effectively. I frequently felt that organizational decisions were driven more by enrollment growth and financial objectives than by educational outcomes, student preparedness, retention, or long-term student success. I also felt that the perspectives of employees with direct experience working with students and campus operations were not given sufficient consideration when key decisions were made. I also experienced and observed workplace interactions that I perceived as insensitive and, at times, discriminatory. As a biracial woman, there were comments and situations that made me uncomfortable and caused me to question whether all employees were being treated with the same level of respect and professionalism. These experiences negatively impacted my sense of belonging within the organization. Additionally, I had concerns regarding how employee complaints and sensitive matters were handled. In my experience, confidentiality was not always maintained in a manner that fostered trust, which made employees hesitant to raise concerns or provide honest feedback. While I cannot speak to everyone's experience, I personally experienced interactions that I perceived as dismissive, demeaning, and unprofessional. Over time, this contributed significantly to my decision to leave. I genuinely care about career education and the students these schools serve. There are many dedicated campus employees throughout the organization who work hard every day to support students and help them achieve their goals. However, I believe the company would benefit from placing greater emphasis on student outcomes, retention, employee development, transparency, accountability, and stronger alignment between leadership decisions and campus realities. Pros: Dedicated coworkers, meaningful work with students, valuable admissions and leadership experience. Cons: Heavy emphasis on enrollment metrics, inconsistent communication, frequent shifts in priorities, limited recognition of employee contributions, concerns regarding workplace culture and confidentiality, and a disconnect between leadership and day-to-day operations, main focus being securing the 20+ grand from students for tuiton and not actual education.

My fiancé's mother came back from AZ Brow Doctor and I was simply amazed by how her eyebrows…read moretransformed. She always had a nice shape, but they were sparse and lighter and she wanted something more defined. She went to Lindsey and Rema for her touch up. Linda, Adam's mother, Linda spoke wonders of this place and for Christmas she said she would pay for my appointment. I usually don't go under any kind of unnatural procedures so I was definitely nervous going into this. I don't have the soarse brow problem, in fact just the opposite. My eyebrows are very hairy, thick, and and also rogue. When I say that, I mean they are definitely sisters but not twins. One of them goes up and the other one goes over in the arc area. I never realized how opposite they were until my appointment. I do a lot of traveling, as any of my Yelp followers would know, and usually I don't have the time to put on make up and I thought it would be really nice for my eyebrows to be nice on their own. My fiancé's mother made the appointment for me online. We tried to get in before the holidays, but they were so busy we had to book a month out. I had my appointment for a few days after Christmas. There is plenty of parking in the lot out front. Rema did my eyebrows, and I loved her. As soon as I walked in she looked at me and I could tell she looked at my eyebrows first and said "girl, you got eyebrows!" And she smiled as if she was excited to work with me. The entire procedure took exactly 2 hours. First, she needs to do her measurements and basically writes on your face with an eye pencil to show you the exact measurements. This is when I truly realized how uneven my eyebrows really were. Even the tail at each end of my eyebrows were opposite from one another. She said she would have to curate one eyebrow, and fill in the other one. One of my eyebrows was also a lot thicker than the other one so my right side was going to have a lot more work than my left. After she explained everything to me, she colored it in with a marker so I could see how it would look when she actually went in with the blade. I was happy with the way it looked, and she kept letting me know that it was going appear much darker at first but that I may even like it. She numbed me a few times throughout the procedure, most of the time I couldn't feel anything it just felt like a little pinches. The rest of the time I actually could feel a little bit but because of my high tolerance for pain I really didn't care enough to say anything. Once you put on the numbing it takes about 15 minutes for it to actually work so I was ready to just power through everything. The first time she showed me, I loved them but she told me she was going to do them over again. I really loved them the first time but I understood why she needed to go back and evenly shaved them. She did them once more and when I finally looked at them I realized they were very dark and also very big. I did love the shape and that she did a great job because they finally seemed even and my face looked a lot more balanced. She explained to me for about five minutes the care for after the procedure. She said the healing is 100% up to you and how you follow the rules and how patient you are with the process. The instructions are very informative and also quite funny. At AZ Brow Dr. they also offer Botox, fillers, micro blading, threading, and micro needling facial services. Rema also makes her own jewelry and sells some of it there which are really cute and affordable. Overall, the pricing is about $350 for your first time blading and shading. For your touch up, as long as you return 4 to 6 weeks after it will run you about $50. Anytime after that it will be $100. I definitely recommend making your appointment online as a fit your touch up soon after. For Botox and fillers the doctor isn't in all the time so you would have to go during a time he is scheduled I be in. It will say on the calendar when booking. They are very professional and clean there. I was happy with how my eyebrows looked, but I was very scared of the healing process, because my eyebrows are so big they were very dark and although it didn't hurt, I could definitely see the looks from people when I went out. I avoided water and washing my face for about a week, I used the ornament that they gave me on my third and fourth day, and I didn't wear make up for about a week and 1/2-10 days. Rema kept saying at my appointment that I will like my eyebrows when I leave but I will love them after my touchup, this gives them the power to change the coloring if we weren't happy with it and really fix the shape. Most clients love their brows even more after the touch up. I can't wait for that. The girls are lovely, the place is clean and it had fun decorations all around, and I would definitely recommend it. I know the price is high, but I checked around with other places and it's pretty much on target to what most nice and professional places charge.
