Pros

A Place to Grow: I spent my formative years as a product manager at this company, learning from experienced colleagues and being given the opportunity to make a real impact. It was a fantastic environment for career development and I was able to contribute meaningfully to key projects. Great People & Flexibility: The team and colleagues were truly exceptional. The collaborative and supportive culture made coming to work a pleasure. The company's flexibility was also a significant benefit, allowing for a healthy work-life balance.

Cons

Growth Stagnation: After many years of contributing, my personal growth and career progression began to stagnate. The company's overall direction seemed to slow down, making it difficult to find new challenges and opportunities for professional advancement. Leadership Change: A shift in new leadership created a noticeable rift with more tenured employees. The new direction and culture felt misaligned with the values that had made the company such a great place to work for so long, which ultimately contributed to my decision to leave.

I would recommend working at ellucian. Managers are from the US but they are kind and interested in your growth. It’s an stable company

Cons

They could be more transparent with changes within the company and care more about remote employees. Benefits meet the expectations but definitely don’t exceed them
