Thank you for taking the time to write a review and share a few of your thoughts with us. The challenge of maintaining our industry-leading 99.9999% up-time record and protecting our more than 6,000 customers from costly downtime, is that team members are needed to cover shifts around the clock, including late nights and weekends. For any questions or concerns about shift schedules, you are encouraged to speak directly with your manager. For additional questions about the business, you should consult your Human Resources Business Partner. We appreciate your commitment to a best-in-class customer experience and hope you will continue to be an energy supplier at Equinix.

Pros

Great people in various internal roles.

Cons

CRO and Senior leadership failed with execution of their CS REORGANIZATION! They laid off exceptional and tenured talent who were either not replaced or new job requisitions filled with external candidates. Upon making internal employees aware of layoffs, they did so in such a callous manner with complete disregard for humanity. It was literally appalling and disgusting! The ‘Magic of Equinix’ (I belong. I matter. I feel safe.) is no longer present and hasn’t been for over two years. No work life balance. Everyone is just a number so why be an over achiever in such an awful space. Morale is lower than ever!
