Pros

At the personal level, Experian hires great, great people to work with. Nice, fast-paced work environment, not boring at all. Good benefits, including above average vacation time.

Cons

Lots and lots of politicking. Company is so big, everyone is expected to specialize, not real below average opportunities to learn things outside of your specialty. No clear leadership in management - no one capable of stepping up and providing direction for the company.

Interesting work Challenging Room for growth Good vacation

There's little concern about employees working too much overtime. I'm really burned out and looking for a better situation at another company.

Pros

Global company with possible overseas opportunities. Bonus plan is fair (if entire company meets the goals.) Benefits are industry average. If you are loyal, they will be loyal too. Company has many divisions and opportunities within, if given the chance.

Cons

Senior Management micromanages too much, company is always reactive instead of proactive, going public was the worst thing that ever happened to the company. Company has extremely high turnover rate, many employees work overtime without being compensated. Senior management does not communicate down well and is often trying to change course without any real thought.
