Pros

Market Leader in most Geos

Cons

Magic of Equinix and start-up culture are empty promises. Lots of people talk about it but unfortunately many don't walk the talk particularly in middle management. Hiring process was painfully long - 10 interviews over 4 months. On two occasions the interviewer did not show up and they had to be a re-schedule. Emails to colleagues are often not replied to. Doesn't reflect well on the company and its culture.

Pros

Hybrid which is nice, for what the job entails pay is ok I suppose at 60k. Every Wednesday there's food for employees.

Cons

Earlier in the year the frisco office was closed down, so many employees including myself who add living arrangements now have to travel 3 days a week to the downtown office. Which is 45 minutes + with traffic. On top of that the shift times suck as someone who appreciates work life balance. 7 am to 7 pm. I would also say that there are many organizational changes and career growth seems limited.
