Pros

Change is a part of transformation and it has presented new opportunities for growth in my career at Ellucian. Our talent is top notch and our mission is rewarding. The innovation of our technology and empowerment to achieve outcomes from our leadership is outstanding.

Cons

Balance can be difficult at times but leaders are flexible and reward the extra mile when demonstrated.

Pros

I have been with Ellucian for 5 weeks and of all the employers I have worked for Ellucian has the best onboarding process. My mentor meets with me weekly and more often if I am needed. I've been given the opportunity to shadow my mentor.

Cons

Ellucian is the process of restructuring services and building out a PMO. Starting in the mist of this transition has been a challenge but I can see light at the end of the tunnel.

Pros

This company is one that has a long history, strong market position but has been a vanilla or blank slate in terms of brand, managing expectations and relationships. It is a company that has not only a DNA centered on giving back, having an impact in our industry of higher education and do all we can to make the best outcomes for our customers and their students; but it also is working hard to drive new innovation and new impact. We have a strong, new executive team with an AMAZING new CEO - who is a woman. We have 4 women now on our executive team, which you can see the benchmark stats on what that will mean for our bottomline, impact and future growth.

Cons

We are learning how to deal with change, manage change and be proactive vs. reactive about change. We have used 'too much change' as a crutch for not figuring how to exceed expectation or continually improve. I also think we tend focus too much on what is not going right vs. the bright spots around where we are winning, improving and making a difference in our customers' and their students' lives.
