Pros

Recreational Room with full-size table tennis, arcade machine, basketball hoops, and pinball machines.

Cons

constant streaming of people leaving and hiring. it runs software development like a sweatshop. you don't go home and work overt time until something is fixed. all environment are constantly being broken because of frequent launch and not enough quality assurance testing.

Pros

- If you get results you will be rewarded with more opportunity. Senior Leadership is generally accessible and if you approach them in the right way can be huge assets in your development. By 'In the right way' I mean approaching them in a respectful way and being prepared for the conversation. Don't expect them to do your job for you. - In general the people are great. As with any company there are a few malcontents who should probably have left a long time ago but the vast majority of staff genuinely want to be there and make a difference. - The company is a leader in its space. Of course more could be done to keep the products up-to-date but there is no denying their market position. - Benefits (Health, PTO, perks like company events) are good and inclusive. - There is potential for international relocation (London, Australia, wider Experian) if you get results and work through the details with your manager.

Cons

- Compensation isn't the highest. The company is transparent about this during the interview process and every review I've ever had. This isn't an issue for me because I more than made up for it with career experience. However, it may be an issue for some people. - Workload can be overwhelming at times, especially when transitioning roles. The company promotes people that get results and as a consequence you are sometimes out of your depth with work. Management is willing and available to help but you will definitely be out of your comfort zone for some time.

Pros

Really good people, positive environment and flexible working environment. Very diverse business with plenty of opportunity to grow careers in many markets.

Cons

Like all places there will be things that people find fault with, but on balance I think it's a great place to work with lots of opportunity.
