Pros
You'll make some good connections with your peers, mainly because you are in the same, sinking ship. The benefits are alright and the pay is good
Cons
Since Adaire took over as CEO, there have been increasingly negative changes in company culture and motivation. Our quota increased by over 100% from Q4 2024 to Q1 2025, which does not align with the company's priorities. It seems they are delusional, believing we are a $20 billion company (Adaire's vision) when we are far from it.
There is little possibility of progression unless one panders to the leadership, who reward employees with meaningless awards and company store vouchers to maintain motivation, or promote them from AE 1 to 2 (which means something only within Equinix).
Also, there is a clear bias toward DEI, evident in promotions and hiring decisions, and the poor performance of some promoted individuals.
