      Pros

      Leader in their markets - data solutions Strong global growth strategies Making significant improvement in execution of strategic growth initiatives

      Cons

      Use of "one team" and "meritocracy" are sound bytes that sound good, but c-suite doesn't execute what they say. Rolled-out "connections" global broad banding compensation plans that resulted in significant reductions in incentive compensation. C-suite awards themselves with high performance marks, large raises, significant stock grants & options (50% of total 2012 went to c-suite) whereas everyone else must fit into bell curve and most receive 2-3% merit increases.

      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.
