Terrible culture and morale

Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

Federal holidays are paid time off, 401k, hires a lot of veterans and potential sabbatical after 5, 10, and 15 years

Cons

The management team is a serious issue. Three C-levels “left” in 2022 among several individuals in upper management. It’s a boys club of white men running the company. Lots of forced prayers at company events. Everything that created the company purchased by Blackstone has gone down the toilet. It is not powered by people. The morale is at an all time low because employees are not allowed to work remotely even if it’s a desk job. Employees get 52 days a year to work remotely and are required to log those days in advance and management runs badge access records against those logged days at home. This company doesn’t value work life balance or family. You are expected to always be available 24-7 no matter the circumstances from PTO, evenings or weekends. DO NOT WORK HERE

QTS appreciates all perspectives and values feedback so that we can improve, fill gaps and ensure our employees have the right, factual information. As you note, QTS offers a strong benefit program including sabbatical programs, 11 holidays per year including MLK and Veterans Day, PTO, volunteer and work from home days and continue to enrich many programs every year to ensure we are fostering a culture that aligns with QTS core values. Part of our core values also includes succession planning and development which we were able to support through a couple of transitions within our C-Suite and leadership teams in 2022. Blackstone has been an accelerator for our business and with that, our employees must be agile, supporting the changes in the business so that we can all share in the success as we grow In fact, QTS is the top performing company within their portfolio of hundreds of companies! Increasing our aperture of candidate pipeline continues to be a priority for QTS and we are proud that we are on par with our competitors and our industry in terms of demographics as you suggest. We know we have work to do and are committed to doing so through our existing talent pipelines and new partnerships. Our ERGs will also be instrumental in supporting this initiative.

Don't believe the hype about QTS

Pros

Pay is decent and they want people to volunteer.

Cons

Everything else. Leadership is hypocritical. no work-life balance. Powered by people - not at all. "We can't solve anything we can't talk about" -- laughable. Biggest culture of blame. Yes they encourage volunteerism, but only to make the CEO look good. I'm sorry but this place is THE WORST.

It is unfortunate that you have not had a favorable experience at QTS. If you are a current employee, you are encouraged to speak with your leadership team or People Services. You may know that QTS recently implemented a flex plan which provides employees 52 days per year to work remotely, Q-Rest sabbatical program for employees to take additional time away for rest and renewal, and paid time off days to enjoy doing the things you love away from work – all in addition to our long-standing culture of supporting our employees when individual needs arise.

Pros

QTS has a phenomenal culture and has great work/life balance

Cons

No major cons other than many functions are remote since it is a geographically separated company
