Pros

If you're still working at this company, the only positive thing is that you have a job in this economy and you've made it through several rounds of layoffs at Equinix. That's about it.

Cons

- Team leadership is rude, has blinders on, forces inefficient processes on people due to their own OCD, have no answers for any team concerns, and the only explanation you'll get for questioning anything is, "you should do this because I said so." - Some functions are extremely poorly run with outdated and cumbersome platforms and processes. - Complete lack of accountability from Director and Senior Director-level people. - Lack of inclusion and basic human decency when communicating with people. - Frequent and arbitrary layoffs. Zero job security.

Company is strong financially. No chance of layoff. Many opportunities to work overtime if you want extra hours.

Very busy, they need to hire more people.

Pros

Hybrid which is nice, for what the job entails pay is ok I suppose at 60k. Every Wednesday there's food for employees.

Cons

Earlier in the year the frisco office was closed down, so many employees including myself who add living arrangements now have to travel 3 days a week to the downtown office. Which is 45 minutes + with traffic. On top of that the shift times suck as someone who appreciates work life balance. 7 am to 7 pm. I would also say that there are many organizational changes and career growth seems limited.
