Pros

The fellow coworkers are what makes this place bearable

Cons

The CEO treats all the employees like dirt. He is absolutely the worst person I have every worked for and with. He is a narcissistic dictator that does not allow anyone to freely share their opinions and when they do, he embarrasses them relentlessly. He constantly changes process based on his knee jerk reactions and then forgets he changed anything while everyone scrambles. Morale is at an all time low. He says evertone should treat everyone with kindness while he is awful to everyone around him.

Pros

New CEO has come in and turned the company round, in 4 months. He really understands the Data Center business and is driving change. Has the CEO broken some eggs doing it, yes, but the company was drifting rudderless, with poor financial results before. Things had to change. The new Evoque is heading places and I see huge opportunity for those that deliver. Great healthcare plan - one of the best I have ever had.

Cons

Lots of negative comments on Glassdoor from ex-employees impacted by the change. New CEO is results driven, as long as you can list how you are delivering (saved money, grown the business or led innovation) you will do very well at Evoque. If your mantra is "we have always done it this way", the new Evoque is not for you.

Pros

Great health insurance and they offer diversity days and floating holidays

Cons

My time at Evoque, marked by low pay, stagnant growth, and a sudden change in direction, has been disheartening. My company was purchased by Evoque for our cloud infrastructure expertise, the company seemed promising until a new CEO's arrival. Despite opportunities to secure significant contracts, especially at the DC AWS summit with the Department of Defense, Evoque shifted focus. The billions invested in data centers took precedence, leading to a move away from cloud infrastructure. The recent merger with Cyxtera, a company in bankruptcy, added to the uncertainty. Laid off without notice and offered only two weeks of pay, my plans, including a scheduled surgery, now hang in the balance. Living with pain and jobless, I've realized Evoque's lack of empathy and regard for its employees. To complicate matters, Evoque opposes remote work, insisting on a return to offices. This rigid stance disregards the evolving work landscape, making career transitions even more challenging. In sharing this, I hope to shed light on the struggles faced by professionals in similar situations. Evoque's decisions have left me disillusioned and uncertain about the company's commitment to its employees' well-being.
