Pros

Some of the smartest folks I've worked with. Committed to higher ed, and constantly driving to make things better for their customers and internally. CEO Laura Ipsen's clarity and vision is very encouraging. New products are best in class, and legacy products are quickly catching up. Lots of opportunities to take your career in different directions and try new things. Lots of kindness and empathy here. Remote work is supported where appropriate.

Cons

Last year's org changes created some churn, but that is settling down now. Work/life balance can be a challenge at times but if you advocate for yourself, management is very willing to listen and accommodate.

Pros

There are plenty of employees who pour their hearts into this mission.

Cons

There’s an acute difference between being an incompatible coworker and a crappy person. Ellucian is led by some people (no names) who need to learn how to be a freaking human. The manipulation, deceit, rage, selfishness, and lack of self awareness were traits exhibited by these folks regularly, if not daily. It’s not hard to choose respect over ego. You can have conviction and not ruin peoples’ weeks at the same time. The sky isn’t falling.
