Pros

I work at the Workforce Solutions office in St Louis. There are actually some good people there at the non management level. Paternity leave was nice.

Cons

So many... -Corner office of building is toxic and a poor leader -Healthcare benefits are not good. -They emphasize goals in workday as they claim to be about developing employees but come annual review time, turns out manager didn’t even read them. -No one can make a decision. Leaders constantly change their minds which cause more redundant work on the pawns and the pawns look stupid because what they didn’t originally wasn’t “right” -Managers aren’t held accountable for poor managing -EWS is like a high school; if you’re in the right clique you get promotions, spot bonuses, and especially sports tickets. -Don’t think about challenging a leader because they’re always right (sarcasm). Leaders hate when you don’t just agree with their stupid and illogical ideas so you’re then shunned. -They said my level isn’t eligible for bonuses but yet two other team members were the same level and were on a bonus plan -So focused on the customer but claim the people are the real assets. (I think I just threw up in my mouth). They don’t care about the people and if you ask people, many of them don’t even want to be there. I heard the place was a different world with previous leadership. -It’s all about the $$

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.
