Pros

lively and fun place to be. dress down culture, use of XBox, PS2, Table Tennis table etc. pay is nice when you get your targets done.

Cons

senior management has some funny ideas of how to get out of a crisis. communication levels are very low, so clients end up mystery shopping you and then you end up back tracking as there is no uniform way to sell a product/ service in a sensible pricing structure.

Pros

Rackspace has good people working there, but they are all trapped because it is the only "gig" of its kind, in San Antonio. Management take advantage of that, by overworking people, underpaying them, and treating people (AKA Rackers) poorly. Rackspace has/had a great opportunity ahead of it. I am not sure the senior leaders in place are smart enough to convert on it.

Cons

Rackspace's culture has steadily deteriorated, due to the immature senior management structure driven from the top. The CEO, Lanham, and his direct reports are not fit to lead a company of this size, and this market opportunity. They constantly change directions, unexpectedly, sending the company and groups into mad scrambles. They can get away with it, because the job market is cold right now, and they have a captive audience in San Antonio. Despite what is advertised, there is an absence of innovation due to the strong penchant for conformity.
