Pros

Excellent offices and good tech support. Provide all required tools to operate efficiently

Cons

Weird culture. Feels like you are being introduced into a cult. Feels strange and fake. Everyone is way too happy and excited about anything. This gets exhasting very quickly. They all get very upset when a person acts somewhat differently to the culture being pushed down. There is unbeleievable pressure to constantly volunteer and donate to pretty much anything. All roles are very tightly defined and employees do not have the freedom to expand beyond the defined role.

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!
