Pros

I've worked at TransUnion for over a year. Things are always busy, but I prefer it that way. I'm relatively early in my career, and with all the growth at TU, I've had so many opportunities to pick up new skills and experiences. That's very valuable to me. Plus, everyone on my team has been so welcoming. People are always willing to answer a questions or lend a helping hand. I've worked at places where young people are ignored, but at TU I really feel like my ideas are making an impact.

Cons

As is the case in any large company, there is a bit of a learning curve when you first join the team. A couple of strong connections in the building can go along why when you're trying to navigate the red tape.

Not a good place to work

Pros

Cafe is alright - nice soup There is decent career progression if and it's a big IF - your face fits

Cons

Got rid of most people who had been there over 3 years to usher in the new regime - made people redundant with 10 years service whilst having very similar jobs advertised Hiring developers in Lithuania to cost cut (wages are half there) claiming it's because 'there are no developers in Leeds' whilst making developers in Leeds redundant Allow a bullying culture and sweep under the carpet with HR if you raise it - I know for a fact people highlight this as the reason for leaving on their exit interview and they don't even discuss it with the people in question Everyone working there is fearing for their job
