Pros

TransUnion associates work well with each other TransUnion first level of management are typically skilled practitioners, who understand the job and can help associates TransUnion benefits are good, with a company matched 401K and an additional annual percentage given as "pension" TransUnion is a very stable company financially.

Cons

Currently, IT appears to be reorganizing and potential for increased offshoring is high. Culture changing to consultant-type organization. Individualistic behavior and short term benefits prized over long term strategic planning. Career pathing haphazard.

Pros

Solid company. I enjoy the work atmosphere and the people.

Cons

Management promotes based on the old boy or good friend network instead of who is producing results. Moving IT development and support offshore will not produce the cost savings predicted and management is sticking with their plan rather than admit their estimates were incorrect. Too much infighting and power struggles at the top levels,

Business Outlook

Pros

The work is very low pressure. Relaxed people. Good benefits. Steady company -- credit reports are not going out of business anytime soon.. It is owned by a prominent Chicago family who comes from many years of money so there won't be funding problems. We were provided with lunch occasionally. The people that work there are very relaxed. It's typical to stop by the coffee break room and chat with someone for 20min before going back to work. My managers at least (and I think the company as a whole is like that) did not micro manage me and just let me do my own work.

Cons

Typical corporate cube atmosphere. Did not feel that the people were very motivated. 5pm and I literally heard the pens drop. If you stay until 5:20pm, the cleaner will start sweeping under your feet. The training was very short. Quite a bit security as the credit reports are private information. It did not seem that there was a great amount of career progression or at least as rapid as I would have wanted. Not a good place for young, fresh out of college as it pretty much kills your dreams and aspirations. Good for the sububanites with kids. Steady job, Decent pay check.
