Pros
Now that I'm on board, I am excited to come to work every day. I feel like I'm making a difference and contributing to the big picture (enabling Student Success). The products and services Ellucian offers resonate with me. I wish I had been able to benefit from some of the solutions we provide when I was in college (it's been a while since I graduated). That said, this company has a very diverse group of employees. While there are plenty of young people here, those of us who have a bit more career tenure still fit right in. I feel like everyone I'm working with is very committed and engaged. Nice to be a part of the transformation that's going on here. They seem very committed to continuous improvement in many ways. I always like working for a company that is on the upswing. I found the recruiting and on-boarding process to be very well orchestrated and professional. I like the dynamic environment, and I hope to be here for a long time.
Cons
I'm new here, but so far, I don't have any complaints. The building in Fairfax is kind of an odd building where you have to visit people on purpose...not a lot of collaboration areas. But that's being fixed! The CEO just announced that the company is moving to a great spot near Reston Town Center in spring of 2017. Looks like an awesome building and location.
