      A learning experience

      Pros

      I've worked with some really ambitious people who have taught me a lot; largely what not to do. I've also learned to be more assertive and to not be afraid to voice my opinion.

      Cons

      The company is fairly immature. It has grown rapidly and whilst this growth was occurring it seems things went relatively unchecked. It seems now as growth has slowed all of a sudden there is an attempt to use sticking plasters to fix the underlying issues. Also my experience is that unless you are a guy you will struggle to get promoted. To be honest you'd struggle to get employed.

      Strong work ethic across the board, but coupled with overbearing, micromanagement culture.

      Pros

      -Great work ethic across all departments. -Smart employees, especially on the services team -Experian name is trusted within the industry -Provides good foundation. Training program has been boosted up this past year. -Great Christmas and Company Day parties -Quick to recognize own weaknesses, and management puts action plans in place to fix it. But... -Management team is majority homegrown, showing proven potential for advancement within company.

      Cons

      -A majority of the action plans (said above) do not get followed through after announced. Lots of plans to make plans. -Extreme, extreme, extreme micromanagement culture. Get ready to explain your hour to hour to your direct manager. This is most prevalent on the sales team. -Major turnover because of the micromanagement culture. All of the best employees/managers leave because senior management disagrees with the micromanagement opinion. -Management team is majority homegrown, so all of their ideas come from within the bubble. There will be no new ideas based on successful experiences from other companies. Lots of recycled ideas from the senior managers. 80% are homegrown.
