Pros

Coworkers are nice. I heard from my friends in GCS that their president really cares for people, and the new CEO is better than the prior.

Cons

The most important thing for the company is shareholders and share price. Environment is toxic, employees are discouraged. Some people work crazy hours (especially in IT). Most leaders are bullies. Making more profit by increasing prices (EWS) is unsustainable. Prospective employees should avoid the company unless they enjoy working for bullies and love to be a “yes sir” person.

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.
