Pros

Good PTO, unlimited sick days

Cons

Between childish CTO emails and rumors of dissolving work from home privelages within IT while HR touts the perk on LinkedIn, EWS has been downhill ever since Equifax culture and management really began bleeding into their moneymaker, the St. Louis office. Employee morale is down, people are leaving in droves, and management will blame it on people who are "stuck in their ways" when in reality the large-scale innovative projects have no clear direction, with employees being told to work on something that will likely be throwaway development. But we should look on the bright side, maybe we'll learn something while we waste our time!

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.
