Rule by fear and Rotten Culture

Pros

On-site gym is convenient. Pay is decent if you are male. Some have great work-life balance; others are overworked.

Cons

First and foremost: If you've been fired or suddenly get a poorly justified negative performance review, document everything, and perhaps get legal advice ASAP before signing anything away. Now on to the substance: The lifers who have wormed their way to middle management rule by fear. You can smell it every time someone is fired. People huddle with their heads down in their cubicles and hope they're not next. If you speak up against them, expect to be fired or to have fabricated failures on a performance review. Don't underestimate the influence they've amassed. They've got HR reps and people in all groups in their pockets, so you have surprisingly few places to turn to. Lots of the blame game goes on. Junior employees learn quickly from veterans at the company. Finger pointing is the company sport. Something didn't get done? Well it's his fault, not mine.

Pros

Great benefits and comfortable work atmosphere.

Cons

Company continues to send more work to other countries and doing away with US jobs. Several years of lay-offs. Saw many, many lay-offs from executives all the way down to mailroom employees. Also had years of hiring freezes and no raises. Last year's raise was about $.05 for a top-rated, college educated employee.

I'm excited for the Changes

Pros

I truly enjoy working with Transunion. The benefit costs are low compared to other companies, while the insurance coverage is great. You get the feeling that management really cares about its employees. The work/life balance is very good, and with all the changes occurring, I would bet there would be even more benefit perks down the road.

Cons

The pay seems to be very middle of the road, but with all the perks of working here, I have to realize it's not always better to get more pay unless the company and management are great to work with as well, like they are at Transunion.
