      Pros

      - flexible work from home policy - free pop in Lake Mary - some great co-workers, but the good ones leave quick The new CEO has some positive effect.

      Cons

      - health insurance is expensive - no bonus for regular employees - directors get bonuses for underperforming work - underperforming employees in every team without consequences - some underperforming employees get rewarded and not fired - long deployment time - no automation - no skilled interview process - no communication between teams - a lot of long time employees who never saw newer technology - salary is all over the place - management reports up and not down - open office - favoritism everywhere - a lot of tense meetings far away from business standards. - Every team develops their own duplicate solution - Lay off waves where necessary, but the replacements aren't skilled either - Positions get filled even if the new unqualified employees - No clear roadmap or decisions

      Pros

      Great co-workers who care about the clients they serve.

      Cons

      Constant change with no time to implement. Getting rid of experience and long term employees to bring in lower paid non experienced resources. Executives take care of each other, and the rest average 2-3%. People are constantly on edge waiting for the day they get laid off - at least in the US. Ellucian has reverted to old practices promising all kinds of features and functionality with no basis in reality of what is possible to deliver that feature right the first time.

      Decent place to work, learning environment, but, on thin ice...

      Pros

      - lots of learning opportunities - (most) co-workers are awesome - company culture is nice - good vision and ideas of the company - flexibility to work from home

      Cons

      - lots of re-orgs occur (encountered 2-3 in my year that I've been here) - cross-team communication lacks - higher-ups want to see fast products and not quality products - poor treatment of employees - poor hiring process leads to bad choices during - no true incentives for employees to go above and beyond - if you work from home too often, you might get chastised for doing so - company favors HQ more than any other office - financial status of the company is poor right now
