Pros

Decent salary and annual bonus. Some nice people in the lower levels.

Cons

The whole new management (CEO, CIO, CISO) those guys just came into the company while everything was on flames just to make money. Those guys doesn't have the know how required and they have been focus in replacement the good people at the company for their friends. The good and smart people are leaving the company. Used to be a great company with the previous leadership, but suddenly with all the magicians that came to the company chasing money after the breach 2017 this became in a chaotic place to work.

Pros

It may be better than being unemployed.

Cons

It feels like a bad dream where you can't wake up. In the beginning, I was willing to give the new CEO the benefit of the doubt, but he has been told time and again about how this BU is run and has allowed the bullies in charge to continue. The company has been run into the ground in order to meet the $1B in revenue goal. They will likely reach it, and then the decisions they have made will likely catch up with them. Before Equifax took over, this company was a leader in the industry. Within a couple of years, they will likely not even be a contender. They have either run off or fired most of the employees who know what's going on. They have already had over 100% turnover from the top "talent" they brought in a couple of years ago to shake things up. They got rid of a team of amazing leaders and have replaced them with inexperienced "yes" people who won't question the mismanagement mess that is currently in place. The ridiculous quotas and goals being set up by the new management prove they know nothing about how this business is run. It's heartbreaking for anyone who ever cared about this company.
