Pros

Jeans on Fridays and pay.

Cons

I can only give my opinion to their Workforce Solutions division in St. Louis. I guess they have to come up with something like good pay and casual Fridays because their culture and leadership are horrible. Very high stress, very much of a "fear-based" culture, very out-dated type of leadership (think 1980s), poor communication, no team-work. They think by changing their workplace environment to an open floor plan that it will fix everything. The truth is, like most companies out there, this plan DOES NOT make for better collaboration (Google this). All they care about is how many workers they can cram into the building. I wouldn't recommend this place to my worst enemy. Worst place I've ever worked at.

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.
