Pros

The company was built on a great business plan: to be the global interconnection hub for the internet. Pays well.

Cons

Self-congratulatory attitude Too many incompetent people in senior management - particularly marketing. No upward mobility or opportunities for internal transfers. Sycophantic culture that rewards credit-stealing and making - but not keeping - big promises

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.
