Work life balance: was very good. But recently shifting to banking culture.

Dislikes

Salary benefits: Expect no more than 5% year on year. Promotions: Yes. But be ready for increase in responsibilities without any hike. If you are given a lollipop, remember to ask in writing as they will never stand with their words. Job Security: Recent layoffs include MD, VPs, AVP, etc. Frequent layoffs for cost cutting are common. Several new hires were asked to leave within 6 months of joining. Not because of performance, but due to change in plans. Skill Development: Very basic products as compared to market with no vision. Company culture: Pathetic. People often fight on the calls.

We get salary credit before time. Work life balance is good. Nobody loses his job unless he is performing very poorly for a long time.

There are no training programs to get ahead in the career. You can't learn new things for a longer period of time.

Equifax Senior Management is not understanding of potential skill of employee. High skill resources are doing less skilled Job for long term. Policies are made in such way that stop you reaching to higher positions. Industry best practices adaptation is poor. Onsight opportunity are only limited to top management. Not sure what is the CMMI level of Equifax but they have to adopt fast to compete in IT Market.
