      Pros

      Good medical, dental, ESPP, 401K benefits

      Cons

      I worked as a part of the Global Operations Strategy team for 9 months at Equinix. It is the worst experience I have ever had working in Silicon Valley. The work atmosphere is extremely hostile - constant bickering,bombarding. While Equinix is a great company to work for, the global operations department has the lowest employee satisfaction ratings and the way it is run speaks for it. There is no room for creativity, innovation- just do what you are told to do. There is a lot of favoritism - if you are in the good books of management your life is comfortable and good, else you are in hell! There is a top down management execution failure in this department. I would advise anyone to stay away from the Global Operations strategy team at Equinix.

      Great Company with a solid vision; Growing pains and uninspiring leaders in some areas

      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.
