Pros

very flexible. Ability to work fully remote with going into the office being optional. Almost all Ellucian employees are remote and live in their territories. Lots of access to support internally and great managers!

Cons

Some of the departments are a bit siloed, but there are changes being made to hopefully eliminate this soon.
