Pros

Large and highly visible, being with the company opens up many opportunities.

Cons

Micro managing and chaos is understated, it is complete chaos. The different assets are ran differently from building to building and sometimes conflict. As a customer in multiple sites, you will need to learn the different rules for each site even though the different data centers are located within the same city. There is absolutely no professionalism within the property teams as they speak badly about other sites as well as on other departments. The REM would tell her staff that her boss has no backbone and that he should be working for her and not the other way around. If you were to present new ideas on how to make the job more efficient, you would be told that this is nice but the processes that are in place are there because that is how it has always been done.

Pros

Medical and other Insurance Benefits are ok.

Cons

Unlimited PTO Concept is just cheating people and put more control with the supervisor. People have to take time off at the mercy of the supervisor. The salary is not as per market rate. Also the work environment is very toxic and there is no professionalism. I don't recommend it to anyone.
