Pros

Some nice experienced people who are willing to help. Steady work, nice products

Cons

You are a number, working hard does not matter because it is not noticed. No raises, no bonus, human resources is an absolute joke. Promotion is based on the buddy system. Upper management and CEOs profits go up, the lower class stay the same or get let go like they do not matter

Pros

The data center work itself was interesting and there were opportunities to gain exposure to large-scale projects. Some coworkers on-site were supportive and hardworking.

Cons

Leadership and communication were extremely inconsistent. There was little structure, minimal training, and employees often felt like they were expected to figure things out on their own without proper support or mentorship. Workloads and expectations changed constantly depending on who you spoke to. The company talks about growth, but many employees are underutilized or not actually developed professionally. It often felt more reactive than organized, especially from upper management. Decisions were made with very little transparency, and morale suffered because of it. There was also a noticeable disconnect between corporate leadership and the realities of what was happening on-site. Many employees felt expendable rather than valued.
