Pros

Experian hires really good engineers and the requirement is very high. Working in a team with competent members helped me grow a lot in terms of technical skill and best practices.

Cons

Some managers are not having regular 1x1 with their direct reports to grow their career. Mostly result oriented and fails to see individual needs. Willing to let go most talented people. Used to be great company but not anymore.
