Pros

Highly energetic, passionate, and intelligent co-workers Strong cooperative spirit across the global organization Executive leadership is extremely engaged with our people and culture (it's not uncommon to see them scooping ice cream at a company social, volunteering at a Heart Walk or attending a interns event at a local baseball game) Cross-department collaboration is strong (there is a general love of celebrating the team win) People are committed to their work and high standards of excellence

Cons

Super fast pace of work (hey, it's not for everyone!) Lots of projects going on at the same time and vying for attention Constant growth mode = constant change (sometimes we have to build the plane while it's flying) Lots of M&A activity

Thanks for taking the time to write such a thoughtful review and for sharing your personal experience with us. You have made a lot of great call-outs here, both about the culture of Equinix as well as the current state of the work environment. With two major acquisitions in 2015 in addition to hitting our 52nd consecutive quarter of top-line growth in the fourth quarter of last year, we are indeed in a period of both high growth and constant change. We genuinely appreciate your feedback and hope you will inspire others with your positive outlook.

Pros

What I love about Equinix is that it is a place where you’re empowered to make your mark. By blending our global market footprint with an entrepreneurial culture, we’ve created a work environment with little bureaucracy and ample resources—the ideal conditions for getting things done. We offer our people constant opportunities to hone new skills, try new approaches and grow in new directions.

Cons

Because of it's fast growth change is constant.
