Ellucian reviews

Now your just a number on the cash balance journals. Easily replaced by staff in Mexico or India at a reduced rate. Opinions don't count and they constantly try to reinvent the wheel in new shapes like a triangle then wonder why it is not efficient! They ask for candid feedback on surveys telling you input is anonymous yet every employee gets a unique link to the survey and negative contributors shortly after find their jobs eliminated. I have worked in many places being near retirement age but never one where a wholesome caring company has turned to crap in under a year and become an all for profit machine caring no longer about its employees who were once highly valued and respected. My advice for you if your looking at ellucian for a career, do a Forest Gump instead and RUN FOREST RUN! MOst recently they demand all employees take mandatory training on sale pitches and conditioning the customet. No matter your skills you are required to take trainmg that truely relateds to executives and sales teams. Its like asking the guy at Ford who rebuilt your transmission next week to take 3 hours of online classes and operate on your aorta valve next week. Its ridiculous and a thorough waste of time and nothing more than sales conditioning. Currently lead by a group of former Microsoft executives simply look at that dynasty and you can see whee ellucian is headed. Forcing customers to "lease" software on hosted systems on a term and no perpetual licensing or customizing what they thought they purchased. More from the bully pulpit with "my way or the highway" approaches to dealing with clients. Terrible company who released well seasoned executives who had once made it a great place to work and built a trusted interaction among staff in exchange for a bully pulpit all for profit mentality.
