Pros

Pays many Holidays other companies don't include, allows work-from-home depending on job type, bonus based on company performance and your contribution to said performance.

Cons

1. On-call work without adequate tools to do the work so they keep you a prisoner to your home and computer from Friday to Monday without pay. You only get paid if you get a call but yet you can't leave your house because of their stupid incident tracking system. 2. You get a 1 hour lunch but you better not have to use the facilities any other time during the day except during your lunch hour or it will be deducted from your PTO. So in a nine, ten 11 hour work day the only break you get is the one hour lunch. I wonder if that is legal???

Pros

> Leadership team - the leadership team that I report up through to our BU President and NA CEO are consistently strong. They communicate well; they do what they say they are going to do; they value employees contributions, opinions, and recognize hard work and progress. > Products - Experian is a large company with a very diverse product set. Some are better than others, but the bulk of the products that I have exposure to are well received in the market and bring our clients a lot of value. > Culture - while financial performance and client satisfaction are always in the forefront, I believe that the leadership recognizes that we get those results by having an engaged and appreciated staff. People are generally treated well; effort is recognized; there are plenty of 'Employee Resource Groups' that allow staff to participate in the company's efforts based on their personal interests. > Pay and benefits - as best I can tell pay is equitable and market appropriate; there is a bonus program for most employees; slightly better than average PTO policy; medical options are OK - expensive but that's pretty typical. >Work Life Balance - while I'm sure this depends on one's role and team, generally management preaches work life balance and I think most employees are able to make that a reality - I know I do. > Post COVID most employees in North America still have the option to work remote if they desire with some exceptions based on job role.

Cons

> Company structure - Experian is a large and diverse company in terms of products and locations, and since the company has been built to a certain degree on acquisitions and mergers, and there are consistent ongoing acquisitions as the company grows, it can get confusing as to what products we even have, who is responsible for what, and the product oriented silos can lead to lack of project ownership and accountability when we have clients who buy many of our products across our different BU's. > Typical meeting oriented culture - many people's calendars will get booked with back to back meetings all day making it difficult to get decisions made or anything done. > Since we are a publicly traded company, we are always chasing revenue. This can result in less than optimal product decisions and client commitments. There are often heroics that are necessary to deliver on time and keep clients happy.
