Pros

Salary, Bonuses, Flexible Time Off are competitive

Cons

TransUnion boasts that we're all about "culture, values, diversity, etc" but that could be farther than the truth. These words that have no weight at all. Hard workers are treated like nothing more than a BOTS, and expendable assets. And when they decide they need to save a little more money, instead of restructuring or coming up with a real plan, they just lay you off, no matter how dedicated or length of service and their mission which is to line their pockets from your hard labors. Management and Senior management are the worst human beings I've ever worked with. Management doesn't care about people below them other than them doing only things that make them look good. They don't lift a finger to do anything other than talking down to you and make themselves look good to their managers. Workers are sometimes forced into new positions that they didn't want that are total insults to skills and level of expertise just to fill gaps. Watch out, because if the janitor leaves, they may force you to take his position, not joking. Layoffs are as common as quarterly town hall meetings. Real communication from the top (other than, "Wow, look at how much money you made us up here") is non-existent to people that do the "real" work that keeps this company actually making money for them. Working here has been the worst most degrading and unprofessional experience of my entire career. I've had long conversations with many peers and we all have similar experiences. Real jobs are being replaced with Ai and more overseas contractors on a regular basis. So many incredibly talented people have been cut it's a wonder we are still in business at all. Job security is a non-existent concept.
