Pros

Moving from a long term employer was a huge step. Having taken the plunge it was clearly the right step and Ellucian has lived up to an employer that puts people first. I received fantastic support through the recruitment process, which followed through to onboarding - and most impressively has continued through my time with the company. You are allowed to develop as an individual and as a team - knowing that this will contribute to the success of Ellucian. The level of support through COVID-19 has been exemplary, speaking among friends, family and professional connections few have been better. Working remotely and with flexibility was the default setting pre COVID and has made the transitions easier, with great communication coming from all levels. Safety as an employee (and our families) has been the first priority. Individual managers have been excellent, but this is fostered within a very positive and supporting environment - a great place to be. I feel valued and that my opinion and ideas are also.

Cons

I don't have any cons to mention.

Pros

Ellucian had some genuinely brilliant people. I mean real talent. Smart engineers, sharp support people who could look at a broken system and somehow see both the problem and the political disaster hiding behind it. A lot of people there cared deeply about higher ed. They understood that colleges and universities are not just “customers.” They are institutions trying to keep students moving, faculty supported, and operations alive with systems that often looked held together by duct tape, PLSQL scripts, and institutional trauma.

Cons

Then there was the C-suite. Every company has executives. That’s normal. But this group often felt less like corporate stewards and more like LinkedIn influencers who accidentally wandered into an ERP company. They seemed distant. Aloof. Not deeply engaged with the actual work, the clients, or the people carrying the weight. There was a lot of executive polish, a lot of corporate language, a lot of “vision,” but not always the kind of grounded leadership that makes employees say, “I trust these people with the future of the company.” At times, it felt like the people closest to the customers understood the business better than the people paid the most to lead it.
