Thank you for your review. As you know, this has been a challenging year for Equifax, and we have been faced with making difficult decisions along the way as we continue to evolve during our transformation journey. Change is never easy, but we are on the right path and positioned to return to a strong growth mode.
As we just completed our engagement survey, we are currently reviewing the results and will be working with the SLT on an action plan for the enterprise. Investing in our employees' experience and development will remain a top priority.
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.
