Pros

Company is making a lot of money, good bonuses (mostly for those in senior roles). Some roles might require overtime but many do not.

Cons

Anyone who has access to the inner workings of the leadership of this Business Unit knows: the President is an autocratic dictator who has created fear and divisiveness among his team (but he pays them well so they call him 'generous', furthermore many can't leave because they won't be able to make as much $ elsewhere), HR reports to him and therefore lacks integrity (ie. he can fire them!), Corporate turns a blind eye (because this is the company's profit center), the rich get richer while the poor stay poor (minimal pay integrity/equity), the company says it cares about customers but marketing materials are all about Equifax (ie. slogan 'it all starts with us'). Some really great people, but some nasty folks too (and it is allowed, even rewarded). My advice: RUN!

Pros

Zero Ghosting: Communication was super consistent and clear from start to finish. I was never left wondering. Flexible & Open: The hiring managers were genuinely open to discussing the scope of the role, rather than just handing down a rigid checklist of duties. They Stuck to the Timeline: They verbalized exactly how long the process would take and followed through perfectly. No unexpected delays or moving goalposts.

Cons

Missed the In-Person Connection: While the remote process was smooth, I would have loved the opportunity to meet some of the team in person before finalizing everything. Needed More Day-to-Day Specifics: The big-picture conversations about the role were great, but I could have used a bit more clarity and specific detail around what the actual daily routine and tasks look like.
