Pros

- Good flexibility with work life balance - Decent employee perks

Cons

- Difficult to progress if you are a grade D or below. - If you are a Grade D or below say good buy to any promotion opportunities - HR do not like to promote internally! - All opportunities are currently going to the Hyderabad Office in India, however quality is no where as good as UK resource...its just cheaper! - Training opportunities are slim! - HR want current employers to leave...this includes HR Staff!! - Only the exec team are guarenteed a Bonus! - A Bell curve rating system....no matter how well your team perform, someone has to get a 2 on their appraisal. This means no Bonus opportunities.

Experian Response
2y
Thank you for sharing your experiences. Unfortunately, the Glassdoor platform only allows us me to make a single response and I’m concerned that won’t enable me to fully address your comments and even worse not give me the opportunity to improve your experience. I have personally been proud of the internal promotions we have made in HR over the past few years, promoting people into Heads of HR, Senior HR Business Partner’s and Senior Talent Acquisition Manager’s to name a few. Development in the HR team is also really important, we partner with CRF and i4cp to provide access to market leading insight, run a HR Rising Stars programme and the HRBP masterclass which is in flight at the moment. Our commitment to the fabulous people and offices in the UK is strong – the UK is and will always be a key strategic hub for Experian, at the same time as growing our footprint into other geographies around the world. Lastly, I was concerned about your comments on the performance process, I believe we run a fair and transparent system, which enables us to build a thriving and high performing culture. I’d love to understand your points of view in more detail and would therefore warmly encourage you to connect with me directly - Rachel Duncan, Chief People Officer UK&I

Pros

Decent salary & benefits, monthly no internal meeting days

Cons

Friendly reminder that HR does not care about you. They care about staff with seniority, whom they will allow to retaliate despite that being against company policies. Think twice about reporting the higher ups because it will come back to haunt you, guaranteed. Also, AI is the only thing that matters anymore. Watching the volume of once-impressive colleagues become so single and simple minded through constant AI usage is not only disappointing but genuinely alarming. Thinking for oneself is no longer the standard, it seems, and speaking against such unfettered use of AI in all things will get you professionally ostracized.
