Pros

It may be better than being unemployed.

Cons

It feels like a bad dream where you can't wake up. In the beginning, I was willing to give the new CEO the benefit of the doubt, but he has been told time and again about how this BU is run and has allowed the bullies in charge to continue. The company has been run into the ground in order to meet the $1B in revenue goal. They will likely reach it, and then the decisions they have made will likely catch up with them. Before Equifax took over, this company was a leader in the industry. Within a couple of years, they will likely not even be a contender. They have either run off or fired most of the employees who know what's going on. They have already had over 100% turnover from the top "talent" they brought in a couple of years ago to shake things up. They got rid of a team of amazing leaders and have replaced them with inexperienced "yes" people who won't question the mismanagement mess that is currently in place. The ridiculous quotas and goals being set up by the new management prove they know nothing about how this business is run. It's heartbreaking for anyone who ever cared about this company.

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.
