Pros

Work-life balance is about right, and surprisingly good for a FTSE 100 company. Board-level and senior management have done a good job repositioning a company that could have been "killed" by the global credit crunch.

Cons

Focus is focused too much on the short-term, down to meeting monthly targets. Impressed with senior management and rank-and-file, but middle management leave much to be desired. Feels like a federation of companies, rather than one entity.

Pros

Good work-life balance, fair, hybrid. Opportunities if you are in business or sales. Avoid if looking for a technical career.

Cons

Experian publicly advertises that they are a technology company, but operationally if you want to move ahead, in the business and sales area is where you want to be. Very little opportunity for engineers and technical. Experian has become more of a Fintech company in the last 5 years and leaves them vulnerable in bad economies.
