Pros

None at all. I can assure you that.

Cons

I have always seen job positions in this company but I have never applied directly because I have always heard bad things about them. Unfortunately for me, I ended up working here against my will through my main company, which was offering services to Equifax. - Be careful installing something "forbidden" in the laptop, even if it is a simple application, they take it as the most serious security threat in the universe and open a process for you. - You don't have access to apps or chats from your cell phone. You are condemned to be 100% on the laptop. - The QA area is boring as heck. They use old-fashioned and rigid methods. It takes 30 minutes just to add a couple of test cases to the tool. - The automation framework sucks. They use a framework that no one uses, stiff, horrible, zero flexibility, complicated to configure. Apart from the fact that the tool sucks, its repositories are poorly configured and badly done by their own QA's... - You need to stick with their processes/tools. Don't waste your time suggesting something new. - Even though I am a Senior SDET, I have to follow the orders and processes of an Intermediate person.

Pros

Overtime options are great. The pay is okay, but be prepared to sacrifice your peace of mind.

Cons

It's like pulling teeth trying to get a day or just a few hours off for doctors appointments, family priorities, etc. I was penalized for missing work due to having a miscarriage and needing immediate medical attention. My supervisor took multiple unscheduled days off, even came in on a Monday and decided she wanted to take the rest of the week off... and did. you are constantly going to be micromanaged and looked at under a microscope. Equifax sacrifices quality service for fast service. there is a constant competition to close more cases per day. Good luck going to higher up with any issues, they will just tell you to hang in there things will be better soon. I experienced retaliation from multiple supervisors for reporting issues I was having with them. laying off hundreds of American employees to take business abroad for cheaper labor while grossing highest profits in company history is insane. In conclusion, this is the most toxic environment I have ever worked in, If the job market was better I would've been gone long before I hit 1 year of employment.
