      Pros

      A market leader with a large and fairly loyal customer base. The environment was positive and the people were great to work with. Many have been there 15-20 years. The pay was commensurate with market values.

      Cons

      Poor sales forecasting due to continual missed product development deadlines. Very little accountability when it comes to new product delivery. Rifts and reorganizations were needed to cover the failures of upper management.

      Pros

      1. Some of the R&D teams work on cutting-edge tech stack. 2. HR team in Bangalore is very proactive, employee friendly and focused on employee well-being. 3. E.g. I wanted to quit my job a couple of months ago due to some issues. The HR he intervened and provided a different prespective and I stayed back in the company. 4. Growing company and bright future. 5. Lots of long tenured employees. 6. Very engaging employee engagement programs. 7. HR focuses on corporate social responsibility and I have worked in 3 MNC companies in the past and out of which 2 companies had social responsibility by the marketing team. Here HR focusing is very nice and they engage a lot of employees. 8. Employee benefits and options are really cool.

      Cons

      1. Some teams work on legacy technology. 2. Some managers are outdated and they don’t make any attempt to change or improve with the current scenario. 3. Managers are not empowered and they micromanage. 4. Finance team here needs a overhaul. Very unfriendly policy and programs and very slow and outdated in every aspect. 5. You will be disappointed speaking to the finance team as they donot provide reasonable solution and they will confuse too. 6. Not much of onsite travel opportunity 7. Most of the interesting work in and around technology and process are done in R&D US based teams and hence they are not using the skills and talent of the team in bangalore

      Pros

      As a provider of ERP software for educational institutions, you feel like you're contributing to a worthwhile cause - improving student and faculty experience. There is a lot to do an no lack of projects to complete.

      Cons

      There seems to be a negative energy at Ellucian. It feels connected to the history of acquisitions and layoffs in the past.
