Equifax reviews

There is no time off! The bureau works 24*7*365 and so do you. They are very understaffed and they expect you to be up every minute at their service. There is this thing called as an earned leave but the amount of approval required makes you really get the feeling that you have earned a holiday. Also that doesn't mean they can't ask you to come online, they obviously can cause you don't have a life outside office. Everybody is into everybody's business, your life outside office is monitored as much as it is monitored inside. There are zero perks, zero incentives and everybody is in support. They expect you to login instantly but can't approve your work from home cause you logged in instantly on their command. Also here even putting things on mail doesn't matter, they don't care about mails too. The manager to employee ratio is very bad. There could be one person reporting to 2-3 managers. Also you are expected to be client facing even if you are working in data which isn't really client facing. There is nothing that you can't do but there is everything that isn't significant enough to be considered for your KRA.

Salaries much below the market. Lack of challenge in the job. Too much time spent on bureaucracy and infrastructure problems. No career progression and working from home is discouraged. People are leaving in hordes with no replacement. High management says Dublin is part of a strategic plan but facts show otherwise, there's little investment and projects have been removed from the office. No infrastructure ownership (it's all in US) and there are changes in configurations and permissions all the time without notice, affecting international teams and blocking the development. Management is unrealistic, even though they know about these problems they expect teams to deliver as if nothing was happening. Huge storms over insignificant issues, which keeps teams locked in low value and boring tasks. Lack of transparency. People hired for one project realize on the 1st day that they're going to another totally unrelated project using different technologies, with no explanations given. Candidates are told that the company is fully Agile and has only greenfield projects, which is not true.
