      Pros

      Work life balance - very few people work after 5pm which is nice

      Cons

      The marketing department used to be an incredible place to work - circa 2018/2019. However, with the latest CMO, there were massive layoffs and turnover and a caustic, toxic environment has taken over what was once a wonderful work place. If you respect yourself, do not take a job in this marketing department. I have never seen people talk to each other the way some of the marketing leaders do at Ellucian. It's really sad, to be honest.

      Pros

      working from home is nice, but they use it to mask firing large portions of employees.

      Cons

      almost everything else; pay is average. Work hours are criminal, there is NO loyalty to employee's but they expect the reverse. I took on the tasks of several co-workers who were let go or quit over a few months. I was working 24/7 until i would fall asleep. Eventually, a VP took issue with me and i was fired shortly after. I am fortunate to be an ops engineer and had a job within the week, then Ellucian had nerve enough to call and ask me back.. NO WAY?!! Also, I think their social media branch posts Glass Door reviews to improve their rating.

      Pros

      The clients are wonderful and very patient with the lack of delivery on Ellucian's part. Greatest day was the day I quit!

      Cons

      Extremely toxic environment. Back-stabbing upper management. Constant turnover. Zero loyalty to hardworking employees. Unrealistic goals. Weekly beat-downs by Director level and above. No support. No ownership of quality of product.
