      Pros

      Profitable company Investing heavily in technology and data science

      Cons

      Has truly become a toxic environment. Literally a sweatshop with no regards for people. Leadership is nothing more than "yes men" only concerned with their own personal objectives. Politics is the name of the game, all being played out on the broken backs of the loyal employees who stayed to clean-up after the breach.

      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.
