Pros

There are many opportunities for someone inexperienced to grow skills.

Cons

Regularly expected to be available even during non-work hours. Pay is below market. Management is insecure and loves to micromanage. You get PTO but don't you dare use it. Oppressive and toxic work environment where leadership regularly drives from the back seat. You'll be promised a promotion for unacceptable amounts of time but they'll make excuses to not follow through. If you're a high performer then look somewhere else because they expect you to be a "lever puller". Systems architects participate like they have no skin in the game. The red tape and dotted line nonsense favors corporate political games. Middle management makes bets as to how they can reach metrics by forcing deliverables that are unreasonable.

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.
