Rewarding work helping creatives, but high stress and burnout. - Campus Admissions Full Sail University Employee Review

Good work-life balance most of the time.

Not enough recognition for achievements and project success.

Full Sail is made up of people who genuinely care. There’s a strong sense of belief in what they do, and you can see it in the number of employees who have stayed and grown there over time.

There’s been a shift away from some of the things that once defined Full Sail—fewer external events, scaled-back internal celebrations, and limited pay growth. Leadership feels less steady, and the broader direction isn’t always clear. From a compensation standpoint, moving from hourly to salary actually reduced my total earnings, and the adjustment I received didn’t fully make up the difference. That’s been especially difficult given my time with the company and the expectations of my current role.
