Pros

I'm going to retire in just a few more weeks! Well, they hired me when I needed a job. The first few years were really not that bad. I hired into a small company that Equifax had just recently bought, and it took several years before the Equifax culture really started drawing us in.

Cons

I've been struggling with bad software for 50 years, but this is by far the worst I've ever seen. Everything is carefully designed to slow down production and encourage mistakes. There are at least three different single-sign-on systems, and you have to type in your password at least 20 times a day so you won't forget it, but it's up to you to keep all the passwords in sync. "Agile Development" is so codified that the schedules must be met whether or not the tests pass, let alone whether the new web apps do anything useful at all for the users. And then there's the incomprehensible corporate-speak from the "Senior Leadership", maximize the word count and minimize the information content, but I guess you get that everywhere these days. I could go on and on. Worst job I've ever had, worse than bleaching tombstones in the national cemetery in the summer of '68.
