Pros

Interesting business, fascinating industry, friendly people - always willing to help, lots of untapped potential and opportunities given strong assets, solid and stable business model, good brand recall, big enough but not too big that you get lost in the shuffle

Cons

Strategy and decision by committee, slow as molasses, hard to innovate because folks are stuck in old ways, lazy business which results to lack of execution rigor, mediocracy, and lack of accountability. Poor and weak leadership. Hard to get upward mobility at the VP level. Toxic, crazy culture — better yet, has no idea what culture means or does.

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.
