Pros

They hired us all after the purchase of the building we worked in. There was a large tool list that was purchased shortly after the hire date. The team that we have on site is very dedicated to performing to the best of our abilities, up to and including the site manager.

Cons

Lack of training and involvement from upper management. They were here for maybe the first week or two and have pretty much disappeared since then. With the lack of the regional management, many projects have been delayed. We were all hoping that policies and procedures would change drastically to align with Digital Realty standards and this has not happened. After 90 days, we are still doing things the same way as we did with the previous company (which is not a good thing). As an hourly employee, I am expected to have my phone on me at all times and answer calls throughout the nights and weekends without compensation, it seems that there should be a policy in place for this. I do not work for free.

Pros

Nice place to work, mostly friendly bunch with a high percentage of females in the leadership teams. Flexibility to work from home etc if you have an appointment. Free snacks, and some good team building days out.

Cons

Too many meetings. Often feels like the need to have a meeting about a meeting. Not enough processes so feels like left hand doesn't know what the right hand is doing. Not enough training on the systems used so need to be happy to push buttons and see what happens.

Pros

Plenty of opportunity for self-starters to make a name for themselves in the industry

Cons

Organization is very set in its ways, slow to recognize the need to change and slower to change.
