Pros

No need to learn new technologies Sufficient leaves although you can't avoil those. Others benefits are only in papers not in reality

Cons

Very old technology. Most of the Java projects are in java 1.4 Only support project Government/ yes boss cultural. Manages thinks thay are supreme. Even HRs aee worst. Domain are very niche, not useful outside. Wrost for experience 5+ technical people. HR and manager will not support in clearance if you have resigned. HR / managers ask team members to give +vs review in lue of some gifts. so Beawar of Fake reviews

I appreciate you taking the time to leave your review and experience however, your cons are concerning to me. As we've taken on new advancements, our priorities have continued to center around our associate experience and development. We've built an environment that embraces new ideas and encourages skill building for all, because together we’re able to generate powerful and positive solutions. I encourage you to reach out to your manager, as your experience does not align to the processes we have set out to achieve. Thank you again for your feedback as we continue to grow. - Abhi Dhar, Chief Information and Technology Officer

Leadership out of touch with staff

Anonymous employee

Business Outlook

Pros

Fast paced, lots of exposure and a mountain of work for most to get through at any point. If you want a busy job where you will be pushed to learn quickly, TU is for you. People are generally friendly, but the culture changed massively since WFH.

Cons

Leadership is not collaborative. Exec is like an exclusive club that looks down on the rest of the organisation. Plenty of examples where the performance of people has been graded by the Exec without consultation and, alarmingly for those not graded as a top performer, no evidence of a plan to improve. Lots of people end up leaving, feeling undervalued and, quite frankly, beat up by the way they have been treated. You are not given the tools or time to perform to your best. The culture since Covid is to have your days blocked by meetings, meaning that you get roughly 5 minutes a day to actually do work. There is a chasing culture at TU, setting unreasonable expectations to achieve goals. Most managers and exec rely on emails and escalations to get things done. Very transactional way of working and whilst leadership always imply that they are being 'strategic', the business is being held back by the culture of moving from one task to the next, and they mostly scapegoat junior members for not being able to hit strategic goals. Finally, if you are considering TU as a place to work, please remember that TU Europe is a very different workplace to TU US (headquarters). It is a regional business that is kept in its place by US and you shouldn't expect to see the same budgets as they get. Finally, whilst benefits are generally pretty good (PMI, Pension), salaries are out of touch with the market. I suspect most people would be offered higher salaries elsewhere.
