Pros
Dun & Bradstreet is a wonderful workplace with a diverse staff and inclusive culture, and I am very pleased to join the company and be part of the team. The company offers great career progression opportunities and communication tools for any inquiries, reasonable adjustments, and business suggestions. I very much enjoy and benefit from my daily work, regular team meetings and flexible working. The work culture at D&B is very welcoming, professional, and can be fun. Within a few months, I joined the UK engagement team and organised a Clean-up Day, participated in social events, volunteered to lead a discussion at the book club and became part of an exciting project that looks at bringing D&B’s unique story to life. The hiring process was straightforward and enjoyable too. Expectations on both ends were made clear throughout the entire process and I appreciated the smooth induction process, my manager's support and also patience with my documentation. I look forward to making a full career at D&B and exceeding the expectations put in front of me.
Cons
It's hard to write cons, as of today, because I genuinely enjoy working at the company.

Three years after the company's acquisition, steps have been taken to mend the areas that were adversely affected by the previous management these fixes are looked on as opportunities and may sometime distract you from contributing to growth. However, one must remember a happy customer is priceless and supports growth.

Pros
I joined D&B in 2002 due to it being a great brand and a fixture in the business commerce arena. I was looking for a company to grow with, contribute to, was stable and build a career that I would be proud of. Since 2002 D&B has expanded its reach beyond credit risk into capital markets, artificial intelligence and partnering with large corporations as examples. Companies like IBM and Google do not partner with just anyone and these sizable companies see tremendous value in what D&B delivers to them everyday!
Cons
In general, there is really no downside. D&B provides a flexible work environment and realizes that a company can still excel in modern ways

Pros
Flexible working, decent benefits, get to play with cool data.
Cons
Lack of leadership from the top-down. No clear strategy on where to go. Leaders jump on latest buzz words without clear idea on what the market is and requirements to be competitive. Culture is all based on quantity of effort and output, not about quality. Product is a non-player in the organization, with roadmaps decided on the latest whims of leaders, short-term revenue opportunities and data scientists developing datasets that follow the path of least resistance. Internal processes are suffocating, which make it difficult to coordinate a coherent and smooth release.
1 - 4.0Sep 18, 2023Director of Federal Business DevelopmentFormer Employee, more than 10 yearsWashington, DC
Pros
D&B is a great company with a fantastic brand and during the early 2000's the Federal Government practice experienced tremendous success/growth. However, when the business was taken private by a P/E firm, the Federal practice leader selected was the wrong fit and the business suffered.
Cons
D&B's data is the best in the market, but its technological innovation has always been lacking and not forward-leaning; with the data industry, which is now being disrupted by technical advancements in and around predictive analytics and generative AI, D&B appears to be playing catch-up to a number of more nimble technology-driven competitors, who may have left D&B in the rear-view mirror.

Pros
Dun & Bradstreet is a very rewarding company for those who are self-driven and proactive. I have yet to run into anyone not willing to go out of their way to help you succeed. This environment does create a great sense of networking and can make for a very rewarding and fulfilling career.
Cons
While not just a "D&B" policy, the environment can be very different depending upon which department you are under. Majority of the departments are very laid back, typically employees work from home on Fridays for example, or show up around 9am and leave before 4pm usually with 1 hour break for lunch; however, some departments do not get this luxury. Some of the groups within Finance are typically in office before 8am and leave after 5pm, whether you take a 1-hour break for lunch or not does not matter, as the expectation is "work when your team works". This comes across as your productivity being measured in terms of how long you are in the building and not by what truly matters, the performance and results within the time you are in the building. To note again, this is not a "D&B" policy, but rather varies based on the management.

Pros
I have loved my past few months at DnB, I think it has been one of the easiest transitions into a role that I have had. It speaks volumes that a company would value the ideas and input of someone that is new to the team. Leadership lets you navigate and build your own relationships with your hiring managers but are still there for you to bounce ideas off of or if you need guidance. There is an amazing work life balance, which is something that is important to me. These are just a couple things that stood out beside competitive compensation, benefits, and time off.
Cons
I really don't have any cons to say about DnB.

Cons
No downside so far! Moving back into a hybrid model which has its advantages and disadvantages
