Pros

Equinix have been a great place to work for a long time. Environment and payment were great.

Cons

Since they changed the CEO, all sales conditions have been worsen every month and even applicable to past months. You would sell more every year just to receive less commissions than even 3 years before. Of course all the good people are leaving and the ones staying feel miserable. Also HR dont take reports seriously and Sales Ops basically dont want to pay the commissions you owned and your accounts were being moved without reasoning. Those 3 departments: CEO office, HR and Sales Ops are destroying the company.

Pros

To be honest at the point it's hard to tell. It used to be the people but not anymore.

Cons

The culture is down the drain. The few leaders left that have survived the leadership cleanup are now pretending like they were not a part of the past leadership. It's sad to see what can go wrong with a great company after a change in leadership. The thing they know to do best now is layoffs without any proper planning. HR is the worst, don't even get me started. Sad thing is this current leadership will sink the company, and by the time the Board wakes up to its responsibility it might be too late.

Pros

Great people to work with. Intelligent and involved at their level in the workplace. Helpful and work well as a team and are managed well by their immediate boss.

Cons

Top Heavy. There are too many layers of unnecessary management above those who directly contribute, and at that level, there seems to be authority without responsibility. The “We Care” message is primarily conveyed through words, and it’s repeated, so we believe it. Who you know and who is pleased with you is extremely important for growth.
