Try with 0. You get BOTH messages.
Try with 1. You get BOTH messages.
Try with >1. You get only "The Employee's PIN is not correct !" The
compare validator does not trigger anymore. Is this a normal
behaviour ?

Thank you.

Add a property: Type="Integer"
The default is "String" and that gives different results, as you found
out..
