Local Leadership (in Central America) is poor and is "orange squeezer" model, bad practices in promote people with lack of humanity and professionalism in Central America.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. I'm happy to see that you felt TransUnion was a great, innovative company. But, I'm disappointed to read your assessment of local leadership in Central America. Effective leadership is key to our strength and growth as an organization. As you know, we recently changed our structure in Latin America and we expect that additional support will allow us to understand your concerns and offer development to all our associates where possible. We've also been hiring new leadership across the business, and as a Regional President for CLC, I will do everything I can to set them up for success. In regards to your concerns about our promotion practices, our goal is to promote the most qualified individuals who not only have the necessary skills and knowledge but who also demonstrate the personal behaviors consistent with TransUnion’s beliefs. That makes your comments especially concerning for me. If you'd be willing, I would like to have a conversation with you to better understand where you feel we missed the mark - please reach out to me directly at Todd.Skinner@transunion.com. - Todd Skinner, President - TransUnion Canada, Latin America, and Caribbean

Missed Potential

Lead advisor

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Good work-life balance and excellent benefits. Pay is on-par with the market. Very smart people working here.

Cons

Lack of investment in core fundamentals like network, automation, monitoring and infrastructure often leads to stress and cut-corners. Failure to enable the most capable people to achieve success in their work. More concerned with M&A's than making sure things work well. Stuck in an archaic mentality. Lack of internal career path.

Thank you for sharing your review. It's true - we're growing and that can present some challenges. But in the long-term, that means more opportunities for our associates. Career paths at TU aren't a one-lane road. We want our people to try new things and challenge themselves in ways they haven't before. If you need help along the way, we have resources like our Career Advisor who can help you visualize that path. I'd like to understand more about how you feel we've missed the mark - please reach out to me. - Anne Leyden, EVP HR
