Pros

The people and atmosphere. Very remote work friendly.

Cons

The pay is almost unethical for the Client Services Dept. Zero growth (Although they're working on this) Its important to know this is a Sales Driven Company.

Thank you for your feedback. If I haven’t had the opportunity to meet you since joining Equinix, I hope to do so soon. In the meantime, if you would like to discuss your concerns further, please reach out to me or Debra McCowan (CHRO) directly. I couldn’t agree more about the draw of the people and environment at Equinix. I am so impressed by the passion and ‘win together’ nature of everyone I’ve met. Our culture is one where we all work hard. I know our people are the reason we have been able to accomplish so much. We are developing a career framework that will create consistent definitions and criteria for Equinix jobs around the world. This work will support visibility to career experiences available to you as well as ensure pay is competitive across all of our roles, globally. Thank you for your hard work and dedication to extending the Magic of Equinix to our customers. The excitement and support across Equinix for our transformational journey to deliver a best in class customer experience has surpassed my expectations. With the partnership of you and the team, we can ensure that our customers are truly at the center of everything we do. Regards, Laura Ortman SVP, Customer Care and Experience

Pros

Great people in various internal roles.

Cons

CRO and Senior leadership failed with execution of their CS REORGANIZATION! They laid off exceptional and tenured talent who were either not replaced or new job requisitions filled with external candidates. Upon making internal employees aware of layoffs, they did so in such a callous manner with complete disregard for humanity. It was literally appalling and disgusting! The ‘Magic of Equinix’ (I belong. I matter. I feel safe.) is no longer present and hasn’t been for over two years. No work life balance. Everyone is just a number so why be an over achiever in such an awful space. Morale is lower than ever!
