Pros

I have been with TransUnion for 5 years and I love my team. Employees here are very hard working, smart and willing to learn new things. I love the flexibility that they offer - we can work from home as required. The company offers great benefits like - 401K matching, health insurance, unlimited time off and training opportunities. They even offer yoga classes and Toastmasters enrollment. I have learnt a lot in my 5 years at TransUnion.

Cons

Some development managers are not up to the mark. The team members are working hard to meet their deadlines whereas managers are going out for lunches. The problem is that senior executives do not contact employees at lower level to get actual feedback, they are just listening to the managers.

Thank you for sharing feedback about your experience at TransUnion - I'm so happy to hear you've learned so much during your time here and are enjoying our benefits. I'm disappointed, though, to read that you feel some of the managers you work with are not leading by example or providing the support they should. As you mention in your review, you wish there was more open feedback about things like this. That's exactly the direction we're moving in at TU, so I'd encourage you to share your thoughts and feelings with your manager and leadership team. But, I'd love to help as well, so please do not hesitate to reach out to me. - Anne Leyden, EVP HR

Pros

I was a part of Trans Union Canada and had no experience with Trans Union US so this review is solely for TransUnion Canada. A decent brand name to have on your resume if you are in this industry. Other than that cannot think of a single positive point for this company and don't even know why I joined it.

Cons

Little or no hand holding during the probation period which is pathetic as it's a fast paced company. I really don't know how I even lasted for close to 2 years there. Extremely lazy HR people who totally forget you after you are on boarded. In my entire 2 years I barely spoke to them at the time of my joining and that's it. They don't do anything from an employee engagement stand point or anything else...everything is done by the Social Committee there. Fire people left, right and center without explanation and saw many people being let go during my time there. A very average benefits package.

First, I would like to thank you for sharing your feedback. Second, I want to say that I'm sorry you had this experience, and want you to know your feedback will be taken seriously. For me personally, respect is non-negotiable, and I would really like to hear more about what you experienced so I can address it. One other thing struck me from your cons - it's true that we do move fast and have high performance standards here at TU. However, we take every employment decision very seriously, so we can continue to deliver the best for our clients and consumers. We've been working to enhance our sales operations and make sure our employees have the opportunity to grow, but there's always room for improvement. We've since made changes to key roles in the last 12 months based on feedback from our teams. Additionally, we know there's continued room for improvement with our onboarding of new team members. We've made significant changes to our onboarding program - like moving to a fully integrated digital system. Our HR team provides numerous touch points throughout the process to ensure it is seamless for our new hires and they know exactly what to expect on day 1. These changes have had a positive impact on the new hire and associate experience. We will continue to emphasize areas of opportunity in 2019 and won't lose sight of it. 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
