Pros

Management is more diverse at the lower levels, though less so at the higher levels. The work force is diverse. Equifax strives to be accurate and fair, which is commendable since it, Trans Union and Experian are pretty much the only players in their field. Building and information security are vigilant and they do a good job of training the workers to be that way, too, because so much of what is done there involves sensitive materials. They do a good job of recognizing good work.

Cons

Meetings are inefficient. More time is spent jockeying for meeting rooms than probably should be. Like any overly corporate atmosphere, a lot of what you see is posturing -- managers calling a meeting for the sake of calling a meeting, endlessly cc-ing as many people on emails as possible, so as to seem more important by the breadth of your audience. They are not encouraged to be overly imaginative, and you won't move up if you don't sing the company line on the correct beat. Training can be hit or miss. Computers are slighhtly out of date (they still use unsupported IE, for crying out loud). If you sacrifice for the good of the team, your good deed will not go unpunished by rigidly by-the-book unimaginative managers.

Pros

Midtown location is prime. Business is interesting.

Cons

Most dysfunctional Human Resources function ever. Zero tolerance for diversity or targeted/niche marketing. Should easily be a $5b company but limited by vision.
