Pros

PEOPLE - There are some really good people here with some great ideas, but many of leaving or actively looking to leave because of the current environment and lack of ability to actually get things done and make a lasting impact

Cons

Very chaotic environment, where work is often directed without alignment, partnership or true thought; it's very hard to get things across the line Senior Leadership very much in the weeds, making all roles doers instead of truly thought-provoking, consultative and strategic - very demotivating Extremely inconsistent in promotions, job titles and job levels - we used to be very consistent but now it's wild wild west and everyone seems to be a VP regardless of their actual job

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.
