Pros

Work/life balance is good. Benefits are acceptable. Time off is on par.

Cons

Pay is well below market. Promotions are mainly tenure based. That means you can do amazing work consistently, and still be passed up for a promotion. There are many arbitrary rules and red tape. It becomes frustrating quickly. And, of course, as many other reviewers have stated, management is the single largest problem in the company.

Pros

Rackspace hires some really great people to work for them, some of the best and brightest people i've met in my career work at Rackspace.

Cons

The Social Media Team works around the clock to make sure that the public image of the company looks immaculate. A number of the reviews on this site are obviously fake. Huge lack of internal quality control, the culture is a minefield of corporate politics where if you say one wrong thing to one wrong person you will be pigeonholed, and HR serves management, not the common employee. If you go to HR, prepare to be singled out as "insubordinate" and for the rest of your days at the company to be horrible.

Pros

Vision is unchanged: to be recognized as a world-class service company Team-based Culture that promotes ownership Pushes decision making to those working daily with customers Leaders who are regularly thinking about improving customer experience and driving employee engagement Opportunity for those willing to put in the work

Cons

Culture can seem 'wide-open' which doesn't work for those wanting very clear, scripted, organized work environment Can lead to change fatigue if communication is unclear
