Pros

* Good Pay if your have the skills

Cons

* 60+ hours a week * On call all the time * You work around the clock several times I had to take calls into the work and coming home * I would normally get calls at 3am and work them till 9am then get a call from upper management to come into the office * On most bridge calls there is a lot of blame shifting, yelling, and name calling. * When I took vacation time I was told to keep my phone on me so that I can work from vacation * I also had a manager cancel my vacation the week before my trip the reason behind was "because I can" $$$ down the drain

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.
