Experian reviews

The path to promotions and advancement is unclear. My manager has no idea how to manage me, where to direct my efforts, or how to listen (rather than panic fill dead silence) during a 1 on 1 meeting. This all means work is easy but I am left feeling like I am drifting and going nowhere. Experian's software and systems are ancient! They are still using a data mainframe that is 30 years old at this point. Their ability to automate processes and scale is bound by this ancient technology that they just can't seem to move on from. Lots of legacy employees that are stuck in their old ways and old office habits. They have no idea how to use simple collaboration tools like shared excel sheets, Jira, or Teams so work is incredibly inefficient. Everything is managed via email and there is zero documentation. The meeting culture is terrible. Everyone's kneejerk reaction is to schedule a meeting with no agenda even though a simple email would be more effective. They love scheduling status update meetings at the cost of 10 people but the benefit of 1. I've successfully pushed back on some of these meetings but it was like pulling teeth to get there.

Growth opportunities feel limited at times
