Pros

The company is well positioned for ongoing success and has a rock solid business model and product mix. Most of the people are dedicated and great to work with. Most of the C-level executives are approachable, highly competent, accountable, really care about employees and are dedicated to making this a great place to work.

Cons

Newer management during this high-growth phase can be uninspiring. Big talk about strategy and high level goals is great, but without appropriate resourcing or a real willingness to listen and understand what it takes to implement things is resulting in frustration for many. There are a lot of execs landing at Equinix from the same few former employers, which can lead to some clubby behavior.

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.
