Pros

Spectacular work life balance. Options to work from home when necessary. Most peers work together as a team and throw in wherever necessary.

Cons

Middle management - There is a large disconnect between the VPs and the employees. Many members of middle management have been there too long and seem to lack the desire to accept new methods and technologies in favor of "the way we always did it". They know how to manage but not how to lead. The "merit" raises are a bit of a debacle since every department had an average mandated by corporate so in order to receive a decent raise someone else in the department must be short changed.

Pros

Company 401k match and usually great team mates to work with

Cons

Equifax does not truly care about their employees. Most of senior leadership and are out for themselves not the employees. You would think being promoted would be easier in a mid-size to large company, but if you are not friends with certain members of the leadership team you will not be promoted. When jobs are posted most of the time the manager already has an idea of who they want to hire, but are required to have the role posted and the other half of the time the role never gets posted and the role is given to someone as a "promotion". Lastly, if you change roles within the company you pay almost always never reflects your job change. People at Equifax make 20-30K below their salaries, because they've been internally promoted. Imagine working with new colleagues who come off the street with the same job title as you making 20-30k more for the same job. It use to be a great place to work, but don't become complacent or you will not be happy.

Worst Management Ever

Pros

The office is nice, by means in which they provide me a desk and have a admirable dress code.

Cons

My boss and other management spend more time criticizing than completing work and promoting to work cohesion. The work environment is like a high school; Employees belittle each other aimlessly. There is no such thing as personal space or respect in the office as the moment you leave a room, chatter begins among any "team" member who does not see you as someone they would want to go and catch drinks with. More gossip is done in the office than work. I would not recommend my closest friends here.
