Ellucian reviews

If you wish to work for the corporate leaders from the Lorax, look no further. What was once a legacy ed tech institution is now a private-equity funded vanity project for 10-15 baby boomers who still believe they are 1980s big wigs working at Apple. Leadership can't even explain what their own products do, nor do most of them have any history in higher education or historical interest in students. They are here for their Blackstone paycheck, to have squabbles with each other, and to fly around the world while refusing the most miniscule recognition for their employees who work harder than they have in years. They laid off hundreds of their highest impact employees in favor of AI tools that do nothing but create more work for the already understaffed employees and cost more than their salaries, all while literally pouring money into an extravagant three-day conference with celebrities, banquets, and parties while their customer schools face financial crisis and mass closures. This is a deeply out-of-touch company that is entirely blind to the reality of the AI hype they are claiming is "inevitable," and the dire state that their industry is in. Additionally, the level of bureaucracy, busy work, bottlenecks, and overall tediousness is ironic for how "innovative" they love to claim to be. Prepare to sit through 6+ hours of unnecessary meetings each day if you are a manager, They have ruined the financial, emotional, and physical health of countless people due to the toxic work environment here and I would strongly caution anyone interviewing to abandon the expectation that anyone at this company has their best career interests at heart. If you love corporate buzzwords, sucking up to people who don't care if you end up homeless next month, and working in an environment worthy of its own Real Housewives show, Ellucian is the company for you. Either way, be prepared to work the job of three people for the pay of one.

Not very stable. (Layoffs are very frequent) Internal Politics.
