Pros

Flexible time off is nice. Most of my peers were great people.

Cons

It's the worst run PMO in IT. Management is terrible. Moral is very low. Good employees leave or get fired for trying to do their job. This is not a place to work if you have respect for yourself. Managers have no loyalty and will throw you under the bus. It's poorly run and disorganized.

While I'm glad to see your pros, I can't look past the cons and advice you've shared. Since I've joined TU, I've made it a priority to try getting to know everyone and be accessible to our people. I want the same for my leadership team and I'm disappointed to see your experience wasn't what I would expect out of our tech org. If there's additional context you'd like to share, I hope you'll reach out to me so I can address it. - Abhi Dhar, Chief Information and Technology Officer

Pros

Excellent executive leadership - I hope the CTO is drinking from the fountain of youth so he can stay forever. Almost unparalleled medical and FTO benifits. The company continues to innovate and expand which creates an exciting place to work with strong future growth in the industry

Cons

Like many organizations the white late 40’s early 50’s male rules. There is very limited diversity where some teams do not have any female leadership or female team members.

I really appreciate you taking time to leave a candid review and share your honest experience. We have such an awesome culture at TransUnion, so it concerns me to think that anyone would feel limited in their career in any way. Please know that having a diverse and inclusive workplace is not just something we talk about - it's something we expect. We'll continue to work on this. In the meantime, please reach out to me so I can learn more about your experience and how to help. - Anne Leyden, EVP HR

Pros

Young employees and B-School aspirants can get a hands-on experience on how NOT to run a company !

Cons

Terrible acquisition and technology decisions have taken a toll on the EPS and financials of the company. They are trying to fix it with mass layoffs now. Highly incompetent people at C-Suite level (including CEO) who are not held accountable for their bad decisions and poor performance by the board. I've rarely come across anyone VP+ who I would say has inspired me with their knowledge. Dumbest people running Product/Strategy teams and that is truly reflected on their product lineup. They have not created any sensational product in past 10+ years and absent acquisitions there won't be any growth, How many Transunion product Ads have you seen on TV or elsewhere (compared to Experian) ? 99% of the Technology staff are looking for a job after mass layoffs. So, it's hard for an anyone to be productive and contribute in a positive way. Raises and career progression are a joke at TU. 90% of employees will agree with this and this has been pointed out in many surveys. If anyone is still looking to work here, negotiate for a higher base. Bonus and raises are peanuts here and not guaranteed.
