      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.

      Pros

      Got to meet and help so many colleges and universities. Learned a lot.

      Cons

      You get lost due to poor management. People are silo-ed so when the layoffs occur they don't really know who's the best to keep and let go. It's just, "well, get rid of this many people.".

      Stop complaining about Sungard, Datatel etc. Consider what your customers are going thru with the company combo.

      Pros

      Former sales. I would give it another shot if all former sales management from both Sungard an Datatel were replaced.

      Cons

      Sungard employees were over paid and their VP level was the director level at most at Datatel. My luck, ended up reporting to former VP's sales from Sungard and they were terrible. I have never seen worse decision making and management ever. I think pompous would sum it up.
