I know RTO is a back door layoff method, but do we know if another traditional layoff is coming in the summer?

Be prepared.. many layoffs happening this week and still more to come.

We're not going to be the only ones to avoid layoffs, that's for sure. Any thoughts on when they might be coming?

I think the many years of treating employees badly are finally catching up to Equifax. So many employees are leaving and we don't seem to be able to replace them since so few are applying. I admit it's fun to watch management squirm as the work slows... —  read more 

I was certain there'd be layoffs in December like last year, but considering that the month is nearly over and it would be inhumane to lay people off this close to Christmas, my guess is that we got a reprieve. It'd be good to know if that's just a... —  read more 

I am still reeling from being laid off a few days ago. I never saw this coming; there wasn’t even a whiff of it in the air. I don’t know what to do. Still trying to process having spent more than 3 years working my fingers to the bone and it was all... —  read more 

I heard that in the tech segment of the company some positions were terminated including managers, engineers. Did anyone hear about it?

Yes. Layoffs across the company. Workforce Solutions wiping out New Logo Sales, Account Executives, and other areas within St. Louis. Many companies have relied on selling back into their customer base and have failed miserably. Why? You need... —  read more 

The layoffs are happening, someone has already confirmed it on this forum but they are shrouded in secrecy. I can’t understand why there is so much non-transparency when it comes to layoffs in this company? Levels of anxiety among workers are high... —  read more 

I heard there were company wife layoffs yesterday at Equifax at least in the Atlanta area?

Former member of the Wells Fargo fraud team

More layoffs are coming down the pipeline mid-March. If you have any concerns about your standing it is likely past due you look for new employment. If you are an experienced and marketable employee, the severance will be like a paid vacation for... —  read more 

What's the situation on layoffs? Are we done for now or was yesterday just a start and we can expect more today or sometime next week? Also, do we have any idea on how many people were shown the door yesterday? I tried to find some info online but... —  read more 

It appears that layoffs are done for now, unless they have another poor quarter in q4.

Layoffs started today.

There have been some rumors going around the office that we can expect major layoffs at Equifax sometime in March, but I can't seem to find out anything more concrete about it. Anybody here knows if this rumor has bases in truth or if I should not... —  read more 

I've been with Equifax for nearly four years, and each has been progressively worse than the previous one. The main culprit is work-life balance. There is less and less of it. We are continuously expected to work more , without being properly... —  read more 

Hope you folks are all happy now that you've let foreign or domestic terrorists steal information that compromises most of the identities of folks in the US through your stupid greed and ignorance. What your company does is already... —  read more 

Equifax is one of the worst that I’ve ever had the displeasure to experience. The overall culture literally finds every opportunity to belittle some employees rather than to give positive reinforcements. People there are not only quick on the draw to... —  read more 

There is a sh--load of things that will need to be fixed - security issues, that's a separate story. However, other things need to be addressed. The company culture has deteriorated and everything is driven just by numbers - all eyes on the... —  read more 

OK, mess up. Epic. Business down. Lawsuits. Layoffs.

what's the update for saint louis?

Feel bad for my old co-workers. All employees and clients do yourselves a favor and leave this sinking ship to have a better 2022! Not worth it and you know that’s true.

Equifax expected you to work off 4 hours asleep every night. Working at 3 am oh see yah at 8 am at the office. Lots of broken half working equipment. When you ask people about it no cares.

I just read this article that said Long Island office is closing and more than half of its employees are being laid off. I'm trying to figure out if this is in addition to the layoffs that took place last week or is this something new?... —  read more 

We have done it before, this reorg should not surprise anyone working at equifax. The execs are interested in bonuses only, we are just numbers. Shame... It used to be a great company...

Unlike over 100 in my building, I survived this round. More coming in April though. The survivors are getting pay cuts.

Wow, how big are paycuts

Nothing to report on the dowsizing side
