Pros

Positive work life balance Salary is decent

Cons

Very cut throat. They are always changing job descriptions so the people in the roles are no longer qualified, then they terminate you. They do not train you. You are expected to be an expert of all and handle everything. The support you have, they eliminate those people with no regards for those folks. Do not leave your jobs to join this company because it will be fast and furious and more than likely, you will be terminated out of the blue right at Christmas time. They always start terminating at the end of the year and continue every 2 or 3 months the next year in waves. Then they post the modified positions again to bring in people with no experience. Equifax looks great on the outside but they are rotten at the core. The stock is strong and they are shedding positions of those who do the work. They are very top heavy in upper management.

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.
