Pros

I've worked at TU for several years. The culture just keeps getting better. Things are fast paced and continuously evolving (which I prefer). You are rewarded by thinking differently and going above and beyond. You are given opportunities to pursue cool projects or work outside your SME area. This usually requires you to work longer hours but gives you the opportunity to gain new skills and round out your career. The people I work with are smart, innovative, and not complacent. I've worked in several environments that don't value their people. This is not one of them and it's what keeps me at TU.

Cons

We are growing quickly and there's a lot happening. This isn't the company for you if you don't like change and to evolve. You have to be willing to ask questions and move the needle forward. If not, you will likely find this place frustrating.

Feedback like this is so great to read! We've worked hard over the past few years to continually improve our culture, and I'm glad to hear you've seen and felt the difference. It’s true things move quickly around here, but we know our employees can handle the challenge. Their hard work is the reason for all of our success, and that's why we want to invest in them as much as we can. If you think there's any way we can keep improving, please reach out to me. I'd be happy to help. - Anne Leyden, EVP HR

Pros

Work/Life balance is good. Lot of company sponsored events where there is free food and drinks. Flexible work from home policies and good PTO. If you happen to be in the right group, working for the right person, work can be interesting, exciting and challenging. This is not very common though. CEO is a pro sales person, so sales folks can definitely give it a shot. In some cases, having TU experience in the resume will make it attractive.

Cons

Career opportunities are very limited. As stated in other reviews, there is absolutely NO clarity on promotions. Mostly based on favoritism. There is NO recognition for going an extra mile or for doing something beyond the obvious. Compensation is below industry average (CR~0.75) and yearly raises are peanuts. Most people don't know spelling for the word MERIT ! Strong performers should stay away from TU, unless they want to chill and have a stable job. Technology being used is not the latest and most sought after in the industry.
