Pros

Data centres across the globe, decent salary and commissions in sales. 3 offices in and around London which gives work flexibility.

Cons

Telecity acquisition last year brought many challenges. Telecity acquired staff aren't trained on Equinix systems/processes and in turn are unable to provide the required customer services to the clients, ultimately clients are suffering. High churn risk among the legacy Telecity client base due to poor customer service. This has been communicated to the senior management by several employees but nothing has changed yet. Sales management is generally uninterested in the employees feedback and as long as their short terms numbers are achieved, this long term churn risk isn't something they are looking to mitigate.

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!
