Pros

Excellent company with great benefits and work ethic from most employees. WFH and flex time allow for good time management. If you land with a good team, working with Equinix will be worth your while. Do EXTENSIVE research prior to accepting an offer. Read between the lines of posted job descriptions and reach out to current employees to get a better insight as to the role and the team.

Cons

Be wary of certain teams/managers. There seems to be certain teams that are quite disorganized and chasing their tails constantly. Frequent moving targets (sometimes hourly!). When everything is urgent, nothing really is. IMO, Equinix was not ready for a remote work model, it is quite difficult to know which contacts to make, yet are expected to 'already know who to go to' for information. Other than my immediate team, I had very little contact with anyone else in the organization. To this day, I still don't know who my HR contact is. As someone mentioned in a prior review, "The company has a complex structure that is difficult to reach".

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.
