Pros

CEO C-level executives are incredible Cross-functional coordination is strong Great benefits (not a fan of FTO though) Strong leadership On the job training is solid if you allow it Great location (Chicago HQ’s) High employee IQ/talent

Cons

Work/life balance is slipping fast Mgmt too concerned about 2-3 yr outlook to reward today’s work (both good and bad but take a step back and praise success) Overcrowding - no privacy, no room for huddles Very Cliquey (if you drink and can attend after hours happy hours and even weekend meetups you get an edge, which shouldn’t happen) FTO means for the experienced little to no time off because of growing work/life balance pressures and for the Jr employees without the same pressures, plenty time off...without a clear way for mgrs to stop because HR policy allows it). Inter/intra-department in-fighting (all are on the same team)

I appreciate you sharing your review. A few of your comments got me thinking… it's true, we're growing and we have to move fast, so I can understand the pressure you may have felt during your time here. But even in those busy times, it is my sincere hope for all associates that they are included, valued and recognized so I am disappointed to read this wasn't quite your experience. We implemented Flexible Time Off for that very reason - to give our associates more flexibility for both work and personal priorities. It saddens me you felt as if you could not take off the same amount of time that you enjoyed prior to FTO. Please know our tenured associates are incredibly valued and encouraged to take the well-deserved time off they've earned. Again, I appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback - I really value your thoughts. - Anne Leyden, EVP HR

Transunion CIBIL - a company of and for few people

Product consultant

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Work life balance is good If you are a fresher then good place to start

Cons

This company is dedicated to only certain people. No matter who works, only certain people (either those who have been in organization for long or those who always agree with their boss no matter what) get credit. If you have a good eeducational background I would not recommend this place. You will be able to get much better opportunity elsewhere. Good work doesn't get appreciated though fawning does People are hired by making false promises. Designation allocation is extremely strange. Be cautious about designation while joining.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. I'm disheartened to hear that your experience wasn't what we want for our associates. Having a leadership team that creates a fair, inclusive and encouraging environment is so important to me. I want every associate to feel comfortable speaking up, sharing their ideas and knowing they will be rewarded for their accomplishments. That's the kind of culture we want at TU. We'll continue to work at it - your feedback will not go unheard. - Anne Leyden, EVP HR
