Pros

Qts provides their employees with a great amount of flexibility. The teams and individuals at an engineering level and below are great to work with and very family oriented. Compensation is market, or slightly above if you are coming in from the outside.

Cons

Listen, every organization has its challenges. I think that in this environment its mostly self-inflicted, and quite frankly there is lip service about change, but none of the stakeholders are really interested in change. The environment is extremely top heavy, and their criteria for promoting hiring management in most cases seem to have personal private agendas attached and nothing to really do with the progression of the business as a service provider. We often wonder if the goal is to just keep things kind of moving along at a baseline until somebody comes along to buy, and make all of the executive staff millionaires three times over. I'm sure someone will chime in and savvily denounce most of my statements, or even introduce them as unfounded, inaccurate, or just plain wrong, and that is fine. I hope that readers will read all of the posts here, gain a larger picture and make their own decisions based on what they read. I am simply posting to provide an accurate picture of the climate, and provide a forewarning to not only prospective employees, but current management if they care to listen.

You obviously put a lot of time and energy into this review, and we too would encourage individuals researching QTS to look at the larger picture. Reviews on Glassdoor alone indicate a 3.3 out of 5 approval rating. 66% of reviewers would recommend QTS to a friend. 70% approve of our CEO. And although many companies would be satisfied with these numbers, we continue to put processes and training in place to improve our ability to provide industry-leading products and services and best-in-class customer service. We are powered by our people and are committed to finding ways to ensure our people have the tools they need to be successful in their roles, and for those who want to be challenged, opportunities to take on new responsibilities and broaden their capabilities so they can continue to grow their careers within QTS. Swheta Bhatia Director, People Services Operations

The company has continued to find new ways to increase retention. Have a great team and feel supported by management. Just added a new equity program along with already existing stock purchase program.

Cons

Limited amount of work from home days allocated per employee. No car bonus or reimbursement for tolls on commute to work.

We appreciate the review! It's encouraging to hear you're excited about our new equity program, "Together We Grow." When QTS is successful, everyone is successful! QTS recognizes that work flexibility is important and employees are encouraged to utilize all 52 work-from-home days every year. This does not include days when the unexpected occurs, like picking up a sick child from school, running home to take care of an immediate need, falling ill, etc. Thank you for your feedback and contributions to QTS!

Pros

Servant Leadership - Folks will lean in to help you resolve issues. Fluid workflow - There are opportunities to work with other workgroups when you have spare capacity to grow your knowledge/experience into other areas. Rampant Growth - Industry as a whole is expanding very fast. Giving new opportunities for movement Environmental stewards - Leader in sustainable data centers with closed loop cooling. Community driven - Constantly have volunteer opportunities available and actively looking for more Teamwork - From at work, to at home; Your coworkers, managers, and executives actually care about you. They want to know who you are and are genuine in their interactions. CEO's will actively strive to learn your name... so it still has the small company vibe, but it is getting bigger fast.

Cons

Growing pains - Rapid growth and expansion have left some policies in need of polishing/creating. With the rapid growth there is upward mobility that leaves production vacuums behind. Good/Bad - the expansion doesn't appear to be slowing down anytime soon.
