Pros

Overall it is a stable company with a bright future despite recent bad headlines.

Cons

The attempted rate of change is too fast to succeed. Throwing bodies at a problem is not going to achieve your goal. Certain areas have too much work to do while others struggle to be productive or relevant. The benefits package is below par and being further depleted by replacing existing benefits with lower cost, for the company, alternatives.

Pros

My direct manager. Comp plan if you’re lucky enough to find several whale clients, and if you’re lucky, the commission is approved.

Cons

There are a lot. First, office politics. Equifax expects employees to be very corporate and robotic. Metrics metrics metrics. 100% focused on revenue, not customers. Metrics, metrics, metrics. PIP overuse. Even when you’re 150% to yearly plan 6mo in, they expect 300%. Make sure to keep receipts. Senior management will find the most ridiculous ways to push reps out, continently right before a huge payout of a very delayed commission plan. (Sell something in Jan 2025, you will only get a fraction of commission until June 26). That’s if the exception committee approves payout (which never happens). If you sell a big deal, don’t expect to get paid 100% of what the plan says.
