Pros

Flexibility for work/life balance (depends on your manager) Macro-managers High margin business

Cons

Too many mgmt. layers, most lacking leadership. YES MEN types, using 'systems' to measure and get to know what their teams are doing. Mgrs. stay in their offices. Disjointed efforts of multiple company salespersons/divisions/products: Head-in-sand reactions. Equifax 'way' clashes with TALX culture; New president doesn't value TALX culture, and demoralizing company with in-your-face, suck-it-up, too-bad 'finesse'. Pay below market...and dropping Poor internal cultivation of 'bench' for positions.

Pros

The pay was pretty good for the level of responsibility I had at Equifax and the commute was not horrible.

Cons

Incompetent management, totally political environment, long work hours, shifting requirements, constant drive to cut costs, short staffed, no product vision, not open to new ideas or methods of operation. Management constantly made every employee feel that their job was at risk in order to "enhance productivity". Overall, just a miserable pit of a place to work.

Pros

- It's a good place to work, the environment and the people contribute a lot to the professional development - The payments and benefits are always punctual and you are well-paid compared to the average of the market - A very different place and market to work, you can learn a lot about the credit market

Cons

- Some of the professionals are clearly stagnant and 'slacky' or even apathetic and they prejudice the innovation and the improvement of the company - The turn over is very high, even in high levels. And the worst part is that the knowledge and know-how of some processes and projects are gone with the people when they quit. - There are almost no investment in marketing research and publicity to make the company more famous and well-seen. Consequently we don't grow in Brazil. - Network counts more than competence
