Pros

Company does extremely well in financial performance Good work environment and flexibility

Cons

Equifax leadership, including the CMO, seems to only care about the Pricing and Data/Analytics areas of Marketing. Evident in any Town Hall you attend. No real interest or much funding for other disciplines of Marketing. Probably because the CMO is not a marketer by trade. The matrix organization of Business Units and Centers of Excellence is very difficult to navigate resulting in many bosses and stakeholders who often conflict. Meetings galore! A lot of time spent presenting internally including lots of pwpt decks. Politicking is very prominent. And viewed less favorably if you don't work at corp HQ in Atlanta

Pros

Equifax has a great franchise with access to an enormous volume of data. They have been very successful and they have good products and services, they are market leaders in some areas. Good benefits. They are always trying to innovate with new products and services.

Cons

There is a definite hierarchy and you are expected to be loyal or you will face negative consequences. Senior management (with the notable exception of Dann Adams) is not there to help you, you are there to help them. Never, ever ask a hard question or criticize senior management in any way. The bonus system drives a lot of behavior and many times it conflicts with company and personal goals. As a result, the company has a sharp focus on short-term results, not on building value nor on achieving market share.
