Company Priorities Need Refreshing

Pros

Great people and 1st/2nd level management, flexible work hours / locations, ability to take on new roles that push you outside of your comfort zone. Competitive salary and benefits.

Cons

Short-sighted quarter to quarter thinking makes it challenging to implement longer-term strategic changes. Under previous leadership, company mentality was to "hire the right talent" as opposed to "develop talent" in an effort to minimize cost; career progression paths are still not very well defined - progress is being made but it takes time to implement. Equifax runs far leaner than it should, and at times, many fundamental elements of doing business / serving customers can be underfunded, with the emphasis on leaders to do more with less. At some point you get what you pay for.

Pros

-Great Benefits overall -Get to travel (Company pays business expenses) -Lots of work to do

Cons

-Our actual product (software) is HUGE, has high learning curve and management has little patience -Salaries are low in general compared to other companies -Office location is in the worst part of the city, Santa Fe (3-5 hrs of commute unless you move closer) -Mexico City Business Unit is highly unorganized and out of touch with the rest of Equifax worldwide -Most of the actual leaders are NOT actual leaders -Professional Services Management permanent abuse from home office policies -You are expected to give results with no training at all, and if you do you are questioned of how did you do it -Professional services has an informal mobbing policy in order to get the work done -There is a lack of communication between areas and little to no teamwork between them -There are plenty of established procedures that are not being followed -They make you sign a "voluntary" resignation when they fire you and then tell everyone is quitting voluntary -Several areas are crippled and in bad shape/health due to bad practices permanently being promoted by management (HR, Customer Service, Development suffer from this)

Pros

Good pay, benefits, and flextime options

Cons

Rotational work is generally limited to a select few. If you have the right manager you can learn but most of the time you learn on your own. Sink or swim mentality.
