Pros

My favorite thing about working for Experian Marketing Services (EMS), is that they value great ideas. If I have an idea that will help the business and sell it to leadership - they will do whatever they can to support the success of it. You just have to be willing to put in the work. Moreover, I work with a wonderful group of people who are always there to help out. I never believed I'd work in a place where there "one" person was missing - that "one" who always brings people down. down. I don't sit in the same office as any of my immediate team, but it feels like they are there with me everyday. My manager(s) truly care about my development and I've been assigned a mentor to help me grow myself and navigate the challenges my role requires. It's proven to be very valuable. I recently was given a promotion with new challenges and was my 4th promotion in under 5 years. It shows EMS follows through with Career Development.

Cons

As an employee working here, you have to be okay with lots of change and consistently changing demands. And be willing to do more with less - and be efficient as possible. Management definitely recognizes this challenge and is accommodating when real life may get in the way.

Pros

Pay in line with industry standard. Great benefits package. Some flexibility and opportunity for growth depending on your department/manager. Some amazing, talented, smart people.

Cons

Vicious corporate politics. Lots of back-stabbing. CYA culture. Cannot trust management. Lots of lay-offs. Top talent let go while underperformers stay. Has gone downhill since certain executive management changes.

Pros

Great people to work with. Willing to bring on young blood and open to new ideas. Lots of opportunities and great people to grow your network. Being apart of a team that uses new technology and be apart of a new platform.

Cons

Upper management does not realize some of the few old school thinkers left that only manage up and does not produce work. Sometimes you have to play the corporate game.
