Pros

Salary/bonus structure are competitive. Most people are nice, friendly and pleasant to work with. Campus is clean, nice and up-to-date. Most people in functions other than IT and finance seem to be content.

Cons

Company is very political. Kissing up to VP's is the key to get ahead. Company's growth is driven by acquisitions, off-shoring (Chile/Costa Rica), importing IT consultants from India, and moving jobs to lower wage states such as Texas and Arkansas. Finance and IT are seen by management as overhead and not as key partners. Finance is chronically understaffed in corporate and most business units (with the exception of the overstaffed semi-autonomous Consumer Direct business unit). Finance upper management is completely out of touch with the work "in the trenches". Managing up and sucking up are key to success. Coaching and development of staff is give lip service but is not really done in practice.

Pros

Cafeteria was nice. Security guards were very friendly and professional.

Cons

Many managers were immature, have no class and not so educated, especially those who have been there for 15+ years. There were a lot of outsourcing of jobs to other countries. They lay off people when they need to make their numbers. They do not develop their employees.

Pros

Hard to think of any

Cons

Having left Experian, I now remember what it's like to work at a place that appreciates their employees. Experian has 1 BILLION in profit. Hard to think why they feel they need to belittle their employees and grind them and treat them as disposable.
