Acxiom Employee Job Reviews in the United States

"Acxiom is going through some rough times, but senior leadership believes in the core offerings. They are slow to embrace new technologies, methodologies, and tools, so they are going to have a hard time competing in the future."

"I have worked for Acxiom Corporation for 6 months. It's a huge marketing company. It's a good place for new people to come up and work."

"I worked with Acxiom corporation for only 6 months. It's a good company with lots of good people. I feel like my job extended few more months. But unfortunately the projects are over."

"I worked for Acxiom for over 9 years, the IT outsourcing division has had minimal investment in training and is slow to embrace emerging technologies. As a consulting and thought leadership division the lack of both of those things ultimately led to client loss. The Marketing division of the company has reached a renaissance period under new leadership from Scott Howe. If you have a choice, the marketing division has some great opportunity. Avoid other divisions as they are outdated"

What don't you like about working at Acxiom?

"When the leadership changed and the way Acxiom did business changed, it became a culture of change for the sake of change. Every time there was a re-org, there was a layoff. In my 13 years at Acxiom I survived about 10 layoffs and 3 re-orgs. When the management and sales teams cant hold on to the accounts, they keep their jobs, but the teams doing the work are forced to find other jobs within the company of face a layoff."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"Try harder to find new teams for misplaced workforce. When the team I worked for lost the account (Acxiom was underbid), the team members were told to find other jobs within. I found another job with another team and then walked in one day to find that my team members all were re-assigned and again I was left to find another team. I found another team, again, but the work just wasn't there. My new team leader arranged for a phone meeting one day. I was sitting at my desk when I get approached by my team leader (whom I had never met) and he introduced himself and asked if I could meet with him in one of the private conf. rooms. I was getting let go. After 13 years of hard work for this company, they let me go."
