If, and only if, you work in operations, its a sweatshop

Lead

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

the pay is unbeatable. They have very competitive pay and benefits. Its almost worth it for the benefits and pay, almost. If you do not work in operations, its an amazing place to work.

Cons

You are a drone, do not introduce a new idea, you will be penalized for it. There is so much work to do and then you have your on-call weeks where it gets even worse. And the change process is so difficult, its impossible to get the work done that needs to be done without documenting every line even every character of every change you will do. If you submit the change in a format that the approving peer doesnt like, it will not be approved. If your change is even one word different from what you had approved, they will document it. The CREATIVITY at this place does not exist.

I'm concerned to read your review. What you describe is not the environment we've built. I want every associate here at TransUnion to feel challenged and fulfilled by the work they do, and to be able to go home every night feeling proud about their contributions. Innovation and creativity should never be discouraged. If you're comfortable chatting, I would really like to hear more about your experience. Please reach out. - Anne Leyden, EVP HR

Pros

* Great pay * Excellent benefits * Unlimited vacation * Decent workplace & diversity culture

Cons

(In my particular experience within the division I worked for:) * Be prepared for a very lengthy interview process * Non-existent coaching, training or mentoring - especially as a new-hire * Highly insufficient support for remote employees * Constant technology issues, particularly tough for remote employees * Even during a wildly successful era of revenue growth, incoming division leadership was purely money-focused not people-focused - this is a stark contrast to how corporate tries to paint the philosophy of the company and internal PR

I'm disappointed to read your review and hear about your experience. It's a priority that every associate here at TU knows they're valued and supported. We've worked hard to offer meaningful, enriching development and training opportunities - even for our newest team members - so that everyone is set up for success. If you feel we're missing the mark and can do better, please reach out to me. - Anne Leyden, EVP HR
