Acxiom Reviews

Pros

* People
* Flexible work hours
* Many things to learn - if this is your first job

Cons

Pretty much everything - no professional trainings, suck earnings, no promotions, no recognition, horrible management - some set-up meetings and do not come plus they show lack of respect.

I left the company after 3 years in 2009 and it was great decision.

Pros

It is a stable company, with enough clients to retain current position - and, if it wants (see Con's), the ability and to grow.

Cons

Little to no investment in new product and innovation; most of the current effort is focused on milking existing systems.

Pros

Nice team, ok manager. flexible time

Cons

salary is poor compared to market.

Advice to Senior Management

take care of employees to retain them

Pros

The flexible work schedule is a nice perk.

Cons

Poor pay compared to similar job roles in my area

Pros

Working with some great people, on the other hand, some of these great people have also quit Acxiom. Others are looking to leave.

Cons

No career paths or possibilites for advancement. Once you are in a position, don't plan on moving - even if you tell management you are interested in another area. Acxiom will bring someone in from outside rather than promoting or moving from within. Management brags about restoring the 3% pay cuts from a couple of years ago. As of Jan. 2011, employees only got 1.5% back.

Advice to Senior Management

Do nothing and all Acxiom will have left will be entry level people because the experienced people will all have moved to other companies.

Pros

People care about each other here. Great market presence and leadership. Doing some interest technical and business model changes.

Cons

Industry went through some tough times over the past to years and no one in the company was exempt. Even though pay and 401k were cut they have been almost reinstated.

Pros

Flexible time. Relax environment. Ability to work from home. Great people. Lots of teamwork. Very smart people. Exciting new developments.

Cons

Lots of fat. Things move slower than desired. Salary increases are slow. Things chance too quickly. In a few months nobody know who they will report to.

Pros

Acxiom is good in the work/life balance, they understand people have families, etc. Overall Acxiom is a good place to work.

Cons

The benefit program at Acxiom has really gone south over the years including pay cuts, minimal bonus, very small education reimbursement, removal of 401k, etc.

Pros

co-worker are really friendly. easy to work with them.Work from home. Don't need to wake up early.

Cons

management don't care about employees. They think people as number. They don't cover
employee if siltation arise. Too many hours you need to work and management don't applicate it. Management
always ask from more hours from you

Advice to Senior Management

Management need to put their act together.

Pros

Management was approachable and helpful.

Not much growth in the media specialist area.
