Pros

Experian acquired great companies and has developed a great suite of services.

Cons

Experian was trying to put together a world class organization. In doing so, it acquired a number of fast growing companies to bolster it's core businesses which were stagnant or losing ground. When their stock tumbled by 50% after their IPO, the executive leadership panicked. They put a cost cutting program in place and put their "own" leaders in place who ran the companies that were actually taking their business units backwards and they fired the leaders who were growing their businesses 30%+ per year. If they had listened to their managers they could have limited their downside exposure and decrease in revenue by years. Only now are they getting rid of the failed leadership they put in place to try to stabalize their organization after they fired the most qualified leaders. They've probably cost themselves a billion dollars in time, marketplace momentum and human capital who could actually help them grow their business. The executive leaders simply don't know their businesses and their potential and worst of all- they don't know how to run them. This could be a best in class company and the board and shareholders should know that the executive management team blew it big time. Experian says people are their greatest asset and their actions say otherwise- they cut recklessly with disgrard to anything but saving their own skin.
