Digital Realty reviews

Company has good intentions, just doesn't know how to pull it off and often dismantles the office "Team". New ideas are not generally welcomed, although they say "Open-Door Policy" and mgmt beats down the team spirit quite often. They've gotten rid off a few bad managers, but put new ones in place - some good, some not so much. Corporate has extremely lavish Holiday parties, but other sites aren't even encouraged to do a casual "pot-luck" to celebrate and are told that it wasn't budgeted. ((WOW. Great motivation.) Efforts are RARELY appreciated and the downfalls are ALWAYS brought to your attention. Communication is close to nonexistent and the rules/policies change weekly and everyone is not made aware. The "All-Hands" calls are the same old stuff an waste everyone's time. The proclamation of "Work-Life Balance" has never been true in 6 years.There is always some dire emergency that HAS to be taken care of before leaving. Highly qualified people are given nominal tasks or are "not allowed" to suggest proven solutions - (Being told "That's not your job or decision....") If these conditions were recognized by HR and they offered to take me back, I would gladly go back. I'd love to see the changes that so many have wanted since 2010.

So many reviews from people who have just been hired or in the interview process falsely builds on a company with too many deficiencies to list. No IT support, No trained command center staff, Completely ineffective training department, company loyal to no one but the all mighty dollar. Previous command center was shutdown and all employees fired and the command center was moved to New Jersey. Seasoned analysts replaced with clueless robots.
