Pros

The benefits are decent but unremarkable. It has been a pretty stable place through some difficult times in the financial industry.

Cons

VERY slow to backfill vacancies. Annual raises are pathetic (2-3%), while the costs of benefits continue to rise. If you want to get ahead you have to move around every couple of years. It makes it very difficult to become an SME without sacrificing pay.

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.
