Pros

Base salary is good. Bonus is a bit low and 401k is good. The people on the ground are dedicated and are putting in their best effort.

Cons

Too many busy bodies with made up roles. Getting simple things done requires working with too many people and steps. Leadership trying to force the Spotify model but not getting buy in from the teams. Without the buy in it’s doomed to fail. But no one wants to point that out because they are all yes men/women!

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.
