Pros

Good people, great moat for the business, very sticky and hard for customers to leave

Cons

Bureaucracy has overrun the organization. The customer is no longer at the center of everything we do and it’s a sad day. New ideas are crushed and processes have become so onerous nothing can be accomplished to satisfy customers. The poor customers are stuck with the under staffed and extremely overburdened support staff. While the executive org continues to grow with leaps and bounds.

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!
