Pros

The people doing the actual work. They will bend over backwards to make sure their clients are happy. They are helpful, intelligent, hard working.

Cons

After the acquisition of CheetahMail, the onset of business politics took over. There have been several re-orgs and layoffs which killed morale. The best employees and talent have now left the company to become directors at their clients. It is unfortunate, because there was a time that this was one of the best places to work. Now, if you do 0 work, but spend your time buddying up with management you are guaranteed a nice position and pay. There are several people in management who are of no use, lack the merit, and definitely haven't put in the required work to be at senior leadership level.

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.
