Potential for 5 weeks of vacation earned through tenure. FLEX program which allows up to $350 reimbursement for living a helathy lifestyle. For fitness watches certificate fee payments or financial services plus much more.
Cons
Some legs of the company that do not work directly in the corporate offices can go unmonitored and do not get the benefits of company issued equipment (laptops, cell phones etc)

Cons
Poor Leadership at Management level

Pros
The medical/dental benefits are very good. Vacation days are good. Company appears to care about the person, but in truth it's all about bringing in more revenue and renewing the contract.
Cons
In Managed Services it become quickly apparent that the most important thing is keeping the customer happy. I understand this up to a point. I really wanted to like it here and since I have only been at one location I am not sure what other locations are like but I have heard of problems. Ellucian will take the customer over the employee every time. I know of one on-site location where in just a year they went through 7 applications directors. The directors were being selected and replaced by the campus CIO who used to work for Ellucian. Bad placement in the first place and then replacing them after a few weeks. There is no training at all that I have seen. Ellucian will promise the campus anything and everything and then tell the onsite staff to deliver no matter what. You can't reasonably expect people to work at an emergency pace all the time. They don't hire enough people for the job and in many instances they will reduce the cost of the contract while increasing the workload with fewer employees. Don't expect support from management. The president and the executive team seem nice and supportive but it isn't trickling down to the regional management levels.

Pros
Product development is excellent, CEO is driven and forward thinking
Cons
I was hired by a transition team when Ellucian was given a contract at a local institution. The transition team that hired me had very forward thinking ideas about what would happen at this location. However, when the permanent team was hired, their objectives were very different and I am not being utilized for what I was hired for. Most of the people on the permanent team worked at this institution before. Ellucian was contracted here because of years and years of poor IT systems and data. So the permanent team is part of the established problem, and they are having a hard time thinking of innovative solutions.

Pros
Work-Life balance. Work environment. Work pace. Office interior and location.
Cons
Less growth opportunities within one business unit.
- Former Employee, more than 3 years★★★★★
Pros
Good company, managers try to be fair.
Cons
Very little training for the products we needed to support.
- Current Employee, more than 5 years★★★★★
Pros
Very good benefits, and opportunities for personal and professional growth. Response to the pandemic was excellent in terms of equipping a fairly large workforce to remote work.
Cons
Can be difficult to navigate the seemingly ever-changing political environment with many leadership changes over the past 7 years. Personnel decisions are made seemingly arbitrarily with many new leaders, and the organization has shot itself in the foot by not working to maximum human capital and experience.
