Pros

Stable company as opposed to others in our current economic environment. CEO has diversified the product offering which has brought new revenue to the company. The company seems to be financially stable.

Cons

Management by intimidation still exists throughout all levels even after six years of the current CEO. He promised to resolve these issue but it appears now that he is comfortable, focus has moved off the things most employees were looking forward to.

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.
