Toxic management culture, poor compensation, and no job stability - Anonymous employee Equifax Employee Review

Promotions are based solely on how long someone has been at the company, with no consideration for leadership skills or actual performance. This results in micromanagement, poor team environments, bad decisions, and constant employee turnover. Upper management holds outdated views — they still think remote work is bad. While they claim to offer a hybrid model, it comes with excessive restrictions. Missing an in-office day for any reason can lead to penalties, and accumulating several can even put your job at risk. Workload is excessive, and there’s absolutely no work-life balance, despite the company constantly promoting it as one of their “core values.” Employees are expected to handle unrealistic deadlines and frequent emergencies outside of normal working hours. Job stability is low — I witnessed multiple rounds of layoffs during my time there. Compensation is well below market standards, raises are minimal, and promotions are rare. Only when you hand in a resignation letter do they start making an effort to retain you.
