Pros

With Managed Services division which mostly work permanently onsite at various schools. Access to people across the company if you need info.

Cons

Have to train yourself. While you do get access to the training material formalized training is rare.

Pros

Some great people have worked there and the industry can be rewarding.

Cons

The company is in total flux and change and has been since Datatel and SunGard Higher Education merged. Turnover and lay-offs are rampant in most parts of the organization. They have been systematically reducing staff levels since the merger to "lower the average age" of the company and therefore the salary burdens. They do not value individuals at all. They seem unable to right the sinking ship.
