Pros
I think it speaks volumes when you've worked for a company 20 years... I started with Ellucian (which was known as Systems & Computer Technology back when I started) right out of college. I was hired on as a Lotus Notes Administrator and was both nervous and excited at the same time. Jump forward 20+ years later I'm happy to say that I am still excited about the work I do here at Ellucian. I'm definitely not bored!! One thing that has helped sustain my time and to foster my success with Ellucian are the managers I've been privileged to work for... Not only have they challenged me over the years to help me grow, but they have fostered my ever so evolving strong work ethic and always reminding me to push myself and to think outside of the box which helps to ensure that I'm working and tapping into my full potential. Having good solid leadership is key and Ellucian has solid leaders in place. I am so inspired by our current CEO Laura Ipsen. She's amazing and she has clearly articulated her future vision for Ellucian which I'm very excited to be a part of!! Other pros about Ellucian is our diverse workforce, our products and services, and quite simply the fact that we're in the business of Education and ensuring that schools have innovative and cutting-edge tools which will help ensure the success of their matriculated students!! That makes me so proud to be part of a company that is committed to making a difference.
Cons
When I 1st started working for Ellucian, my department was definitely white male dominated, which I would identify as a con. Over the years I've seen more women and more women being promoted and/or hired on to serve in key leadership roles across all facets of the company. In addition, I now see more diversity in the faces of the employees that walk the halls. This is great to see!!
